If you use backticks around these strings, the underscore is 
automatically escaped:

     `id_rsa_rocks.pub`

will render as:

`id_rsa_rocks.pub`

Adding backticks causes `code` elements to be placed around the text. 
Since the majority of the time strings with underscores in them are code 
snippets, this is the correct way to markup these items anyways. It also 
has the added benefit of styling the text in a monospaced font in many 
cases, which helps with clarity.

I have found that once I knew this feature existed it solved majority of 
the issues I had with underscores in words.
