Hello all,
Please count me among those who want to see _ when I type _. My biggest reason for it is database code that uses underscores in field names that become selectors, but I could go on with less critical uses.
One could always add editor features to insert := on any single key input, and to take out := when backing over "the" =, giving single-key assigment for those who thrive on it. Rendering a proper back arrow via unicode is no doubt a good permanent solution.
Hoping for a fix. Happy Squeaking!
Bill

I perfectly agree with that.

Did anyone actually try my package? Didn't get much feedback so far:
http://source.impara.de/underscore.html
After loading the FixUnderscores package, the left arrow glyph is still available:
Character value: 16r8F
Just for demonstration, the attached CS makes Ctrl-Q insert that char.
