What I meant is that is displays what a user of the linux consoles expects for underlining, which is a different colour. Ie, it supports the standard vt100 escape sequence, but the output is not physically an underline. When using TERM=linux in gnome-terminal you do get real underlines. One issue then is whether emacs should ignore faux underlining support. Console users will have certain expectations on what underlining, bold, el al mean that are obviously different than what users of terminal emulators may expect. I'd certainly expect emacs to do what all of the other apps do and ignore that the console emulates underlining via a colour change. The other issue is how emacs determines that a given term's underlining support is via real underlines or some alternative representation and, if the latter, whether colouring text might collide with the application of the underline attribute. -JimC _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
