The org-manual.org file uses underlining to indicate an
application name, such
as ditaa, and the underlining starts at the first letter and
ends at the last
letter. How is this done?
Does enclosing the text inside underscores (_like this_) not
work?
Also, I'm looking at `doc/org-manual.org' from git, as of commit
4611c2b, and it
doesn't seem to use underlining. When I search for `ditaa', I
don't see any
special markup around instances of the word.
And I don't see any special markup now that I remembered to
disable the spell-checking I had activated to help translate
another document to Australian English :/
When I use org-underline
What is org-underline? I don't seem to have that function in my
org-mode (main
branch, as of the commit listed above). Using org-emphasize with
the underscore
character seems to work as expected as well.
Sorry about this. I took the name from a Spacemacs menu that
calls org-emphasize with the underscore character.
As a final thought, does your Emacs have the
org-fontify-emphasized-text
variable set to nil? That would explain the behavior you're
seeing, as the
underscores would appear before and after the text to be
underlined, but the
underlining itself would not take place. Do you see similar
behavior with *bold*
or /italic/ text?
I have org-fontify-emphasize-text set non-nil. Now that
spell-checking is off the underlines appear as expected.
Thanks for your help and sorry for the user error noise.
All the best,
Tom
