cmp7130@sys.uea.ac.uk (R.M. O'Neill) (06/19/89)
Recently I saw someone past an article to the net which when viewed with 'rn' contained some text that appeared bold. This was due to the poster placing '^H_' after every letter in a similar manor to nroff'ed unix manual pages. The rn pager converted these to appropriate terminal dependant highlighting techniques. The question I would like to ask is :- Can this be relied upon, or was the poster breaking the rules. Maybe this is the wrong group to post to as its quite 'news-system' oriented, but there you go... E-Mail replies please....
