489b50d902SRodney W. Grimesreads the named files (or standard input if none are given)
499b50d902SRodney W. Grimesand translates occurrences of underscores to the sequence
509b50d902SRodney W. Grimeswhich indicates underlining for the terminal in use, as specified
519b50d902SRodney W. Grimesby the environment variable
529b50d902SRodney W. Grimes.Ev TERM .
539b50d902SRodney W. GrimesThe file
549b50d902SRodney W. Grimes.Pa /etc/termcap
559b50d902SRodney W. Grimesis read to determine the appropriate sequences for underlining.
569b50d902SRodney W. GrimesIf the terminal is incapable of underlining, but is capable of
579b50d902SRodney W. Grimesa standout mode then that is used instead.
589b50d902SRodney W. GrimesIf the terminal can overstrike,
599b50d902SRodney W. Grimesor handles underlining automatically,
