In TW I'd use the following mechanism, which imo is much easier to read.
Define a CSS stylesheet tiddler eg: myStyleSheet tag it $:/tags/Stylesheet
.zz em {
display:inline-block;
font-style: normal;
}
.zz em:first-letter{
color: red;
font-size: 130%;
}
Your text
@@.zz
* //CAPON// VALLEY //RAILROAD//
** CAPON //VALLEY// RAILROAD
@@
or
*.zz //CAPON// VALLEY //RAILROAD//
As you see. I'm "missusing" the italics format here. ... you could also use
eg: strikethrough, where the CSS would look like this
.zz strike{
display:inline-block;
text-decoration:none;
}
.zz strike:first-letter{
color: red;
font-size: 130%;
}
and the text:
@@.zz
* ~~CAPON~~ VALLEY ~~RAILROAD~~
@@
With this CSS you get a similar result to Erics suggestion
.xx{
display:inline-block;
font-style: normal;
}
.xx:first-letter {
color: red;
font-size: 130%;
}
@@.xx Some@@@@.xx text@@ ... but I think it's hard to read
have fun!
