;;; Commentary:

;; This package deals with the primitive form of underlining
;; consisting of prefixing each character with "_\^h".  The entry
;; point `underline-region' performs such underlining on a region.
;; The entry point `ununderline-region' removes it.

;;; Code:

;;;###autoload
(defun underline-region (start end)
  "Underline all nonblank characters in the region.
Works by overstriking underscores.
Called from program, takes two arguments START and END
which specify the range to operate on."
  (interactive "*r")
  (save-excursion
   (let ((end1 (make-marker)))
     (move-marker end1 (max start end))
     (goto-char (min start end))
     (while (< (point) end1)
       (or (looking-at "[_\^@- ]")
	   (insert "_\b"))
       (forward-char 1)))))

;;;###autoload
(defun ununderline-region (start end)
  "Remove all underlining (overstruck underscores) in the region.
Called from program, takes two arguments START and END
which specify the range to operate on."
  (interactive "*r")
  (save-excursion
   (let ((end1 (make-marker)))
     (move-marker end1 (max start end))
     (goto-char (min start end))
     (while (re-search-forward "_\b\\|\b_" end1 t)
       (delete-char -2)))))
