Sublime Text: Highlight, bold, or underline text

Question

I'd like to be able to highlight (or bold, or underline) important sections of code or other text so they stand out as I write. Sublime Text has a lot of advanced highlighting features, but how can I do a simple highlight like I would in Word or OpenOffice?

Answer 1

You'd need to write a custom plugin to do that. For a bit of a head start i'd suggest using BracketHighlighter then it's a simple matter of modding the regex expressions already present in the plugin to bold what you want.
