Underlining text on canvas

Given a text tag on a canvas, I would like to underline one letter in
that text... using font measure to get it's start and end point and
then drawing a line with those coords doesn't do a good job (line does
not evenly underline the character, with some characters it's to the
right more, with others to the left more).

Any ideas?
Thanks!
Tom
