Seems like a good idea. Which font is available for underlining? I
didn't see any that this would work with.

On thing that would really help is a syntax coloring editor with
some capabilities that are more than just color.
Some artwork in the fonts that would tie together word pairs that
are going to be treated as a single command or variable would
really help.
Suggestion c/o Chris Nebel: apply underline formats to application
keywords. This will also underline any spaces within keywords,
making it easy to see where each keyword begins and ends; for
example, path to startup disk will appear as path to startup disk.
To do this, highlight the Application keywords style in the
Preferences dialog's Formatting pane and select Font > Show Fonts to
bring up the Fonts palette. Click on the popup menu in the top-left
corner of the Fonts palette and select the Single underline style.
