GTalk: Text Formatting; bold, italic and strikethrough.

To have more fun with GTalk (Google Talk) you can add some text formatting :
Gtalk

  • to make it bold, simply use * * (asterisk) between the text that intended to be bold in font style : i.e. *marouan* is rendred as marouan.
  • to make it italic, simply use _ _ (underscore) between the text that intended to be italic in font style: i.e. _marouan_ is rendred as marouan.
  • to make it strikethrough, simply use – - (dash) between the text that intended to be strikethrough in font style: i.e. -marouan- is rendred as marouan.

This is a stupid post but if you are addicted to Google Talk, like me, you will have more fun with GTalk using those few styling tips.

Strikethrough doesn’t work for me.

Oh well, It doesn’t work on the client. OK on the webchat.
