Maybe org-icons.el will work?  Have not used it lately, so I do not know what 
the status is.

Yes. For example, that's how LaTeX fragment preview (C-c C-x C-l) is
done.

Definitely. I thought it was already possible somehow. Anyway,  it's only
aesthetics, so not high priority, but would still be nice to have.

You can change the face of the asterisk, but it will still be an
asterisk. So, that's not what you're looking after. You need overlays to
visually change the symbol.

It's a not-so-rare request. Thus, if Someone implements a minor mode
adding overlays on these stars (or even a more general "beautify"
minor-mode adding overlays on list items, todo keywords...), it could
make a nice addition to contrib/.

[O] Any way to change the *

2012-08-31 Thread Marcelo de Moraes Serpa
Hi list,

I was wondering if it's possible to change the face of the asterisk used
for the bullet points. Using  a smoother UTF-8 character or even an image
would be neat. Is that possible?

Thanks,

- Marcelo.
