"_" character in a variable name turns on underline #823

If I have a sentence like: "The foo_bar frobnicates anthen" underlining is turned on between the two "" characters

Underlining should not be turned on in that case.

Checking https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet underlining is when " \w" and "\w " are used around a section of text. The spaces matter.

In my example there are no spaces, so there should be no underlining

markdown-mode implements the original markdown specification and it does not mention about this use case unlike GFM, CommonMark. gfm-mode supports this use case so please check gfm-mode(M-x gfm-mode).

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.md\\'" . gfm-mode))
