Re: Underlines and strike-through lines in column view

[Wanrong Lin <wanrong.lin@gmail.com>]

Just a reminder: do you have any TODO faces with strike-through lines? 
Remember the line noises will only happen when that is true.

Also, maybe there are some other check-ins after your patch that fixed 
this. I only tried your patch, not the latest GIT revision. I can just 
wait until next release to test again.

Thanks a lot.
