A number of people have encountered problems in using the .UL
instruction provided in the `ms' package.  It is NOT the same
as the .UL instruction in the old package.  There are several
possibilities available for producing the same effect:

		you can use .I to start italic font (underlining
		on most printers); a passage started this way should
		be ended with .R

		you can enclose text in \fI...\fR pairs; these
		will behave as before, producing underlining on
		most printers

		.UL may be used to underline the single word given
		as an argument.

If you're not using `ms', ignore this message.
