Let's please, please keep it simple:: .Em .Bf -emphasis
.Sy .Bf -symbolic
.Li .Bf -literal
Then in CSS, .em { font-style: italic; } .sy { font-weight: bold; } .li { font-family: monospace; } div.em, div.sy, div.li { display: inline; } This should really be stuck in the "default" CSS as I've provided in the HTML5 document. This way, we get consistent use of italics (or whatever the CSS override wants) without being tied to (etc.) and it's consistent for both the .Bf and .Em versions. I understand it won't be "semantic", but we already lost that game with the ".Bf" versions of the same. Let's keep semantics where it's completely unambiguous, and these messages suggest the contrary! Best, Kristaps -- To unsubscribe send an email to tech+unsubscribe@mdocml.bsd.lv
