Request for examples using zones

I have ascii text in which simple SGML-like notation is used to
delimit "interesting" areas, like: <foo> interesting area </foo>.  And
I would like to define a simple (I hope) command of the form "M-X
highlight-objects" which in this particular case would take "foo" as
an argument and highlight all instances of "foo" areas in the current
buffer.

If anyone out there has already implemented a "highlight-objects"
command of this sort, or something similar, I would be grateful for
some simple examples.  I assume that defining zones is the right thing
to do, but I don't have any experience using this feature of Epoch.


Many thanks,

Carl
