Re: [Orgmode] parsing formatted text

[Eric Schulte]

Hi Aidan,

You could pass the text through the `org-export-string' function to
generate a string of HTML from a string of Org markup.

e.g.

  (org-export-string "plain plain *bold* plain" "html")

returns the following string

  "<p>plain plain <b>bold</b> plain</p>"
