Issue

When I highlight text with the mouse cursor in the terminal or the text is highlighted in Neovim, Hyper does not highlight the underscore and the character following it.

Research direction

The issue names no source file or test. Start by reproducing the selection behavior in vanilla Hyper 3.4.1 on Linux, checking both mouse selection and highlighted Neovim text around underscores; done means the underscore and following character highlight correctly.
