I got several good ideas both as comments on my post here and the one at NWN2Forums. Thanks everybody!
Here's a few example how I will change all my conversations:
Descriptions will be in italic:
You are standing in an open field west of a white house.
or
The rug is extremely heavy and cannot be carried.
Actions will be in green:
Kill the troll with the sword.
or
Give the jeweled scarab to the thief.
or
Walk away.
Navigation will be within brackets:
[more]
or
[next]
or
[previous]
[Edit]
The whole conversation formatting thing is based on some basic html starting and closing tags.
Examples:
<b>Makes the text bold</b>
<i>Makes it italic</i>
<color=green>Makes the text green</color>

That looks good, very clean. I have been toying with this same idea myself. Would it be ok if I copied you on your standard?
Also how would you do that in NWN2 I have not figured out how to do colors or different styles of text.
It's really not my standard. I have just listen to what other modders prefer and picked some ideas from them.

Due to bloggers comment handler you have to change the [ to < and the ] to ]
Change
[ to >
] to <
Stupid me :)
