Dave, thanks very much. Simple Markup and RDoc are exciting tools!

I've noticed that with strings like "cat_and_dog", Simple Markup
applies the emphasis attribute to the middle part ("and").  I was
expecting word markup to apply _around_ words (or identifiers) but not
within them.

Instead I have to type it like "cat\_and\_dog" to avoid getting
italics. Is this the way it's supposed to work?

Since we can still always get emphasis inside the string with general
markup ...

    assert_equals(["cat", @em_on, "and", @em_off, "dog"],
                  @am.flow("cat<em>and</em>dog"))

.... I would prefer something like the following:

    assert_equals(["cat_and_dog"],
                  @am.flow("cat_and_dog"))

I'm curious if others agree with this.
