underbars
Low horizontal line symbols
Underbars are underscore characters ( _ ), so called because they sit at the baseline of text rather than above it like hyphens or dashes.
The term appears mainly in technical contexts—programming, file naming, URLs—where underscores connect words without spaces: The filename uses underbars instead of spaces.
Also called underscores.
