Re: [O] Marking/highlighting text temporarily

Inspired by this conversation, I hacked up this functional comment link:

http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2015/04/24/Commenting-in-org-files/

It has a custom link type that exports in html and latex, and when you click on it, it asks if you want to delete the comment.

Thanks all. It has been lovely to see all the various solutions on offer. I thought I was posting a lame query, and was feeling a little sheepish when I first sent it. But it has been nice to see these various approaches, with their little ingenuities.

Wonderful org friends, thank you once again.
