__underline__
-
would be great if editorial supported underline
-
Which dialect of Markdown is that from? I don’t believe “standard” Markdown has that in. What I use (and in my code process, but that’s a different story) using the <ins> HTML tag. (You can embed HTML in Markdown - for most Markdown processors.)

Normal Markdown doesn't have any native syntax for underlining -
__underline__
produces underline, i. e. bold text. In standard Markdown,__bold__
is equivalent to**bold**
, and_italic_
is the same as*italic*
.Chat applications like Discord, Slack and Mattermost support syntax that is similar to normal Markdown, but isn't completely compatible (they include some custom features that don't exist in Markdown, and don't understand all standard Markdown syntax). Discord's underline feature is an example of that.

Standards are meant to be broken, software darwinisim in action. :-)
