Summary: Double underscore needs clarification
Initial Comment:
Double underscore (DU) is pervasive in Python but
nowhere is clearly explained. In print and onscreen
from formatted html it is visually ambiguous because
the DUs run together to appear as one. The table in
2.3.2 of the Reference Manual 2.3a0 2/4/02 presents the
contrast with single underscore but it is subtle. The
usage of DU should be clarified in accompanying text
and perhaps mentioned again in the Library Reference.
