Smart_Strong
============

Summary
-------

The Smart_Strong extension adds smarter handling of double underscores within
words. This does for double underscores what [smart_emphasis][] does for single
underscores.

    >>> import markdown
    >>> markdown.markdown('Text with double__underscore__words.', \
                          extensions=['smart_strong'])
    u'<p>Text with double__underscore__words.</p>'
    >>> markdown.markdown('__Strong__ still works.', \
                          extensions=['smart_strong'])
    u'<p><strong>Strong</strong> still works.</p>'
    >>> markdown.markdown('__this__works__too__.', \
                          extensions=['smart_strong'])
    u'<p><strong>this__works__too</strong>.</p>'
