ã|Notes:ã%
In proportional spacing, the \underscore markup has the occasional
disadvantage of preventing hyphenation and line breaking, which can result
in awkward or impossible interword spacing and line breaks. To remedy this,
put each word to be underscored inside of its own \underscore markup as
illustrated above.
Do not use \underscore in math mode; use \underline instead.
