Highlights and Other Things

Marty - You asked how to make part of your posts bold and other creative things. Well I am not expert but here goes:

Posts to website discusion groups get processed using HTML. HTML recognizes special commands that allow to enable special features. Typically, those commands are surrounded by special characters < and >. The commands are letters which stand for properties. So < b > (with no spaces) would turn on the the bold feature. And < / b > (no spaces again) turns it off.

b = bold
i = italics
u = underlines

In addition, there are commands that allow to change color and insert jpgs. But I like to keep it simple and feel bold, italics and underline is sufficient. If you do a search on Google for HTML commands you should be able to find more information.
