- I'm using troff and a laser jet filter (actually, eroff).

- Is there a way I can get font #2 to produced underlined output
  instead of italicized, ala the way nroff substitutes underlines
  for italics?   It seems I once read about a reg you could set
  that would effect this globally, but I can't find it now.

Thanks in advance,


John
