[fpc-other] Underscores in numerical literals - grouping

[Jürgen Hestermann]

I just tried elastic tab stops with JEdit a bit but they are too restrictive for me:

1.) They do not allow me to start a new table without having an empty line between.
     The following indentation seems to be impossible with elastic tabstops (at least I did not found out how to do this):
     aaaa bbbb cccc
     dddd eeee ffff
     gggg hhhh iiii
     11 22 33
     44 55 66
     77 88 99
     There is no way to specify when a block starts and ends other than empty lines.

     Even worse, when having a block like above and I then start a new line which
     has nothing to do with the above block this whole new line is taken as the first column
     shifting everything above to the right (which is not what I intended).
     Elastic tabstops are way "too smart".
     They disturb more often than they help.

2.) When spaces are used instead of tabs (like in Lazarus IDE) then
     my file has the same look on all editors with monospaced fonts.
     When I would have used (elastic) tabstops then this would look
     totally confusing in these editors.

3.) Together with the issues above the advantages are too few to let me put any time into this
     (I already wasted too much time on testing and writing these emails ;-) )
