Just, creating a backlink to the other thread. John Hendy created the
forward link.

> Greetings.  I've "inherited" an HTML document that uses the

>     <u>e</u>vent
>
> for instance, to underline the initial 'e' in the word.  The context

> something like:
>
>     <b>e</b>    <u>e</u>vent
>
> to show that the choice of option 'e' corresponds to choosing an
> "event".
>
> In preparation for a revision of the document, I'm trying to create a
> *.org

> I haven't been able to find a way to underline just the first

>
>     _e_vent

>
>     _e_ vent
