It has the same effect as inserting an actual space in place of the zero-width space, except that zero-width space does not create an actual space between the characters. > Absolutely all I want to be able to do, is to find stars, slashes,and > underlines, in incoming text, and add something to each to keepit from being > interpreted by the Org mode interpreter.

Another alternative is using entities: * = \star / = \slash _ = \under Entities will never be interpreted as markup boundaries. Best, Ihor
