That's really fuzzy-headed...not having a way to look at the underlying
markup/structure to tell you why the WYSIWOGGLE just WON'T do what you
ask...especially helpful with complex lists and equations.
But we don't really do anything anywhere as complicated as EQUATIONS!

I've used two styles of "mark-up" in word processors.
- One used
"escape" sequences initiated by a tilde (~) character, eg ~ul (underline on),
~uw (underline words on), ~ux (underline off) typed into the text and stored
data in 7 bit ASCII - it was not WYSIWYG, but at the press of a button, it could
be displayed how it would print with the escape sequences interpreted.
- The
other used attribute bits attached to each character (effectively using a 16 bit
ASCII character - one byte the character, the other the attributes).
WP
with its show codes seems like it could be similar to the first system mentioned
above (except that it displayed in WYSIWYG mode all the time) whereby there are
"escape" sequences (codes) inserted into the text to change attributes (at the
press of a function key as opposed to being typed); Word could well be in the
style of the second with attribute bits attached to each character and so show
codes may not really be an option.
