Subject: bug#23798: 25.0.90; Underscore for emphasis in Info?
Date: Sat, 18 Jun 2016 17:12:44 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d3ea8bac-f3aa-48ec-a9f4-ff83f76bb393@default> (raw)

C-h i h n

Why are there underscores surrounding the text "please don't"?

They don't cause that text to be rendered any differently.  Emacs has
had faces for quite some time now.  Why not use a specific face for
this?  Is this vestigial?  Does it really serve a purpose?




In GNU Emacs 25.0.90.4 (i686-w64-mingw32)
 of 2016-03-20
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601
Configured using:
 `configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32 --without-dbus
 --without-compress-install CFLAGS=-static'
