I have a shiny new AT&T 6386/25 WGS with an el cheapo 324 monochrome terminal running as AT386 off of a Paradise VGA board. The problem is that it won't show underlining. This occurs with CrystalWriter's own termcap definition which includes the ansi coding for underlining. It also fails to underline using terminfo using /usr/lib/terminfo/a/at386 or at386-ul. The DISPLAY(7) documentation for the console display clearly states that underlining should be possible. tput fails to go to underlining using smul, nor does echo when the "proper" sequence, "\033[4m" is sent to the screen. Does anyone have a way of showing underlining? The cursor is a blinking underline itself, so the blinking thing should be possible :-) -- --------------------- john@admctr.chi.il.us John Mundt Teachers' Aide, Inc. P.O.
