work in math displays (thanks to Bo Peng on the Doc-SIG)

+underscore.sty 12-Oct-2001 Donald Arseneau
+
+Features:
+~~~~~~~~~
+\_ prints an underscore so that the hyphenation of constituent words
+is not affected and hyphenation is permitted after the underscore.
+For example, "compound\_fracture" hyphenates as com- pound_- frac- ture.
+If you prefer the underscore to break without a hyphen (but still with
+the same rules for explicit hyphen-breaks) then use the [nohyphen]
+package option.
+
+A simple _ acts just like \_ in text mode, but makes a subscript in
+math mode: activation_energy $E_a$
+
+Both forms use an underscore character if the font encoding contains
+one (e.g., "\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}" or typewriter fonts in any encoding),
+but they use a rule if the there is no proper character.
+
+Deficiencies:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The skips and penalties ruin any kerning with the underscore character
+(when a character is used). However, there doesn't seem to be much, if
+any, such kerning in the ec fonts, and there is never any kerning with
+a rule.
+
+You must avoid "_" in file names and in cite or ref tags, or you must use
+the babel package, with its active-character controls, or you must give
+the [strings] option, which attempts to redefine several commands (and
+may not work perfectly). Even without the [strings] option or babel, you
+can use occasional underscores like: "\include{file\string_name}".
+
+Option: [strings]
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The default operation is quite simple and needs no customization; but
+you must avoid using "_" in any place where LaTeX uses an argument as
+a string of characters for some control function or as a name. These
+include the tags for \cite and \ref, file names for \input, \include,
+and \includegraphics, environment names, counter names, and placement
+parameters (like "[t]"). The problem with these contexts is that they
+are `moving arguments' but LaTeX does not `switch on' the \protect
+mechanism for them.
+
+If you need to use the underscore character in these places, the package
+option [strings] is provided to redefine commands taking a string argument
+so that the argument is protected (with \protect -> \string). The list
+of commands is given in "\UnderscoreCommands", with "\do" before each,
+covering \cite, \ref, \input, and their variants. Not included are many
+commands regarding font names, everything with counter names, environment
+names, page styles, and versions of \ref and \cite defined by external
+packages (e.g. \vref and \citeyear).
+
+You can add to the list of supported commands by defining \UnderscoreCommands
+before loading this package; e.g.
+
+ \usepackage{chicago}
+ \newcommand{\UnderscoreCommands}{% (\cite already done)
+ \do\citeNP \do\citeA \do\citeANP \do\citeN \do\shortcite
+ \do\shortciteNP \do\shortciteA \do\shortciteANP \do\shortciteN
+ \do\citeyear \do\citeyearNP
+ }
+ \usepackage[strings]{underscore}
+
+Not all commands can be supported this way! Only commands that take a
+string argument *first* can be protected. One optional argument before
+the string argument is also permitted, as exemplified by \cite: both
+\cite{tags} and \cite[text]{tags} are allowed. A command like
+\@addtoreset which takes two counter names as arguments could not
+be protected by adding it to \UnderscoreCommands.
+
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+!! When you use the [strings] option, you must load this package !!
+!! last (or nearly last). !!
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+There are two reasons: 1) The redefinitions done for protection must come
+after other packages define their customized versions of those commands.
+2) The [strings] option requires the _ character to be activated immediately
+in order for the cite and ref tags to be read properly from the .aux file
+as plain strings, and this catcode setting might disrupt other packages.
+
+The babel package implements a protection mechanism for many commands,
+and will be a complete fix for most documents without the [strings] option.
+Many add-on packages are compatible with babel, so they will get the
+strings protection also. However, there are several commands that are
+not covered by babel, but can easily be supported by the [strings] and
+\UnderscoreCommands mechanism. Beware that using both [strings] and babel
+may lead to conflicts, but does appear to work (load babel last).
+
+Implementation Notes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The first setting of "_" to be an active character is performed in a local
+group so as to not interfere with other packages. The catcode setting
+is repeated with \AtBeginDocument so the definition is in effect for the
+text. However, the catcode setting is repeated immediately when the
+[strings] option is detected.
+
+The definition of the active "_" is essentially:
+ \ifmmode \sb \else \BreakableUnderscore \fi
+where "\sb" retains the normal subscript meaning of "_" and where
+"\BreakableUnderscore" is essentially "\_". The rest of the definition
+handles the "\protect"ion without causing \relax to be inserted before
+the character.
+
+\BreakableUnderscore uses "\nobreak\hskip\z@skip" to separate the
+underscore from surrounding words, thus allowing TeX to hyphenate them,
+but preventing free breaks around the underscore. Next, it checks the
+current font family, and uses the underscore character from tt fonts or
+otherwise \textunderscore (which is a character or rule depending on
+the font encoding). After the underscore, it inserts a discretionary
+hyphenation point as "\usc@dischyph", which is usually just "\-"
+except that it still works in the tabbing environment, although it
+will give "\discretionary{}{}{}" under the [nohyphen] option. After
+that, another piece of non-breaking interword glue is inserted.
+Ordinarily, the comparison "\ifx\f@family\ttdefault" will always fail
+because \ttdefault is `long' where \f@family is not (boooo hisss), but
+\ttdefault is redefined to be non-long by "\AtBeginDocument".
+
+The "\_" command is then defined to use "\BreakableUnderscore".
+
+If the [strings] option is not given, then that is all!
+
+Under the [strings] option, the list of special commands is processed to:
+- retain the original command as \US_command (\US_ref)
+- redefine the command as \US@prot\US_command for ordinary commands
+ (\ref -> \US@prot\US_ref) or as \US@protopt\US_command when an optional
+ argument is possible (\bibitem -> \US@protopt\US_bibitem).
+- self-protecting commands (\cite) retain their self-protection.
+Diagnosing the state of the pre-existing command is done by painful
+contortions involving \meaning.
+
+\US@prot and \US@protopt read the argument, process it with \protect
+enabled, then invoke the saved \US_command.
