Among other things, I have a perverse fondness for additive
markup (MD+IT, MD-IT) instead of MDIT,MDNM. The main reason for
ITAL.PGM and its siblings is to do markup, whether for new or
selected text, with one keystroke instead of two. I figure that
after another 30 years of doing so I will have saved enough time
to write an extra page of immortal prose.
Cheers,
