underscore in text

[Allin C. <cot...@wf...>]

I'm wondering when this changed, and whether the change was intentional: 
it used to be that if you did, say,

set title 'Under_score'

then (at least when using the wxt and x11 terminals) the text came out 
shown, with an underscore. Now (recent CVS[*]) The underscore produces a 
subscript 's' (in wxt and x11). It seems to me that it's more intuitive to 
have to do something special to get a superscript than having to do 
something special to get an underscore when you want one.

[*] I can't say "current CVS" because when I try updating today I'm 
getting the message:

Fatal error, aborting.
