🚀 go-pugleaf

Nroff by default produces boldface and underlines by means of backspacing.
My printer does not take to that too kindly, especially in NLQ mode.
Therefore I am looking for a filter which will convert backspace sequences
into overstruck lines, like so:

  "_^HT_^Hh_^Hi_^Hs _^Hi_^Hs _^Hu_^Hn_^Hd_^He_^Hr_^Hl_^Hi_^Hn_^He_^Hd.\r\n"

should be converted to

  "This is underlined.\r____ __ __________ \r\n"

and 

  "This word is b^Hb^Hbo^Ho^Hol^Hl^Hld^Hd^Hd.\r\n"

should become

  "This word is bold.\r             bold \r             bold \r\n"

Does anybody know of such a filter, in C source?

Please e-mail me at ihnp4!killer!wnp - that's the safest path.

Thanks!
