Seam Text documentation currently contains several code examples that show that the forward slash is translated into HTML italics tag <i>, like the following:

You /must/ have some text following a heading!

You <i>must</i> have some text following a heading!

which does not work, since this is not even included in the Seam Text grammar file, which defines only the star ( * ) as the symbol for emphasis (translated into italics).
The examples in the documentation need to be fixed, and this also affects the Seam iText example and its HTML Conversion feature, which uses Seam Text and includes a text with the forward slashes.
