I tried that and did not succeed. I then tried: (leaving in your lines but
replacing their effect with mine.
CLS
SET var vsoulig TEXT = (CHAR(27) + '-1' + 'ACBDefgh')
SET var vsoulig TEXT = (CHAR(27) + CHAR(45) + CHAR(49) + 'ACBDefgh')
SET var vnormal TEXT = (CHAR(27) + '-0' + 'ABCDefgh')
SET var vnormal TEXT = (CHAR(27) + CHAR(45) + CHAR(48) + 'ABCDefgh')
out bletch
WRITE .vsoulig
WRITE .vnormal
out screen
I wrote it to the file "bletch" so I could see what was produced. When I
copied that file to my printer I got what you wanted - the first line
underlined, the second not.
