Bold or italic in C# or VB documentation comments?

Question

Is there a way to use bold or italic inside documentation comments? Something like:

/// 

        

Answer 1

There are other ways of adding emphasis:

 - Upper case:    some BOLD text       // you are shouting, but they WILL read it
 - First letter:  some Bold text       // less emphasis
 - Asterisks:     some **bold** text   // 2 asterisks seem to work best
 - Dashes:        some --bold-- text   // less emphasis

Plain text is old-school, but it can be very effective - and works long after the technology has changed.
