Q: How did you get the underlined text?
Just use underscores; display result 'pends on the newsreader
recognizing them; T'Bird does for the most part; not all will/do.
I don't see how 2 different characters can occupy the same space and so
was expecting the 'flag' char as what we use to boldface, for example.
There aren't two characters; it's unicode "combining characters"
character; is dependent upon font in use and the renderer to recognize
it; if it works it gives the effect; at worst one gets an idea of the
intended effect as just a leading/trailing underscore in plain text on
older newsreaders.
Not positive which release in T'bird it actually began to look like
underlined text; discovered it by pure accident as had used the form for
some emphasis on old groups with plain-vanilla readers "like since
forever" so is just a result of newer systems with an old and never
standard habit.
