That's correct for the linux console, but underlining _does_ work properly on xterm (and on every other X terminal emulator I've tried). As it seems unlikely for terminfo to be changed anytime soon (and broken installations would remain for a long time anyway), it seems that Emacs just needs to special-case the terminal name "linux" to reflect that underlining isn't supported there. Currently there doesn't seem to be a mechanism for overriding the low-level C terminal code from lisp though. -Miles -- Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
