[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Underscore not displayed on 20.04 (#2466)

> Thanks @elextr and @codebrainz, I have updated my comment above with my geany, gtk, and glib details for the record, but I just got the `line_height` workaround to work with excellent results.

Thanks for the workaround. I can confirm it works. This is December, 2021, just installed Debian 11 which ships with Geany 1.37.1 which has the "bug". Using `line_height=0;1;` + uncommenting [styling], works fine for me. Display was quite troublesome without being able to see underscores. Thanks again.
