James, I agree with you entirely, but RST does not give me a way to do it. If you specify :: you get a set of <pre> tags and absolutely everything within them is passed through as is. I had to change '*' to '_' to get the underscores in there. The text actually says that wives names are in asterisks, so if I simply left the underscores out I'd remove information from the file. I did the best that RST allows me to do. James Simmons On Sat, Apr 7, 2012 at 1:41 PM, James Adcock <jimad@msn.com> wrote:

In your ascii-art family trees, it is disappointing to see the PG-hack underline “convention” being used to represent italic in those files formats which actually **do** support real italic. I would hope to see the PG-hack underline “convention” – if anywhere – only in the .txt file versions. If it is not possible to actually represent these in italic, then I would think it would be better to remove the PG-hack underline “convention” entirely in those files except the .txt file versions. In any case I think readers will find the PG-hack underline needlessly confusing and obscuring when trying to read the ascii-art family trees.****
