1) Nothing against author of makebst, but I believe, that better
way how to deal with such minuscule requirements (``required
style is same as something.bst, with only this change'') is to
find .bst file which corresponds to your requirements (with small
changes -- like underlined journal title, which BTW is pretty bad
residue of typewriter thinking) and then change that small thing.
2) There are many good reasons why underlining is not encouraged
in good typography (it used to be just a brutal hack for
typewriters which were not able to italicise). Therefore, Donald
Knuth did not make any primitives for underlining. Good guys
therefore had to make special package (soul.sty) which have
commands for underlining (and overwriting) for LaTeX.
Conclusion? Read soul.dvi and btxhak.dvi and make your
adjustments.
Have a nice day,
