I'm not sure. I'm just using python and elpy (and therefore
python-mode). I think underscores are normal characters, and a_b is a
generic variable name, three characters long. There is nothing special
about _ or _b (compared to LaTeX and LaTeX-mode, where there is
meaning).
Does this mean I should file an issue with python-mode, or more likely
that everything is working as it should, and I'm just running into an
edge case that can only be covered by a more complex implementation that
uses regexes?
-k.
