No, it doesn't.  I had tried that already.  When I run yours, it works.  Mine 
is in a different context, which must be altering how it is processed.  Perhaps 
I'm misundering something important about the asciidoc formatting.  Here's the 
text that does not work for me:



= Hi

== Chapter 1
\###

. *Open the allParameters.XY file in your plain text editor*

If you are in a hurry, you don't need to read anything in the file, but
can simply *search for "\###"*, which are comment lines
can simply *search for \###* which are comment lines
can simply *search for "#@@"*, which are comment lines
can simply search for "\###", which are comment lines
can simply search for \### which are comment lines
can simply search for "#@@", which are comment lines
marking items that may need to be changed.
