I am using the ".cu" request to (attempt to) continuously underline on a 4.2BSD system. Unfortunately, it only underlines spaces on top of what ".ul" already underlines. The manual says "... causes EVERY character to be underlined ...". Unfortunately, things like ':' and '.' don't get underlined. What am I doing wrong and is there a *simple* way to get round it? -- UUCP: ...!seismo!mcvax!ukc!dcl-cs!stephen DARPA: stephen%comp.lancs.ac.uk@ucl-cs | Post: University of Lancaster, JANET: stephen@uk.ac.lancs.comp | Department of Computing, Phone: +44 524 65201 Ext. 4599 | Bailrigg, Lancaster, UK.
