Re: [t2t] man pages and underlined text - bug?

[Aurelio M. J. <ve...@au...>]

Hello,

As strange as it seems, that's the way man pages work :)

It's a workaround the console (text mode) man viewers do since they =20
can't show the text in italic, so they underline it. The graphical =20
man viewers do show them correctly in italic. There isn't a tag for =20
underline in the man format (groff). Well, at least I haven't found =20
it :)

Bye!
