ul(1) User Commands ul(1)NAME
ul - do underlining
SYNOPSIS
ul [-i] [-t terminal] [filename]...
DESCRIPTION
ul reads the named filenames (or the standard input if none are given) and translates occurrences of underscores to the sequence which
indicates underlining for the terminal in use, as specified by the environment variable TERM. ul uses the /usr/share/lib/terminfo entry to
determine the appropriate sequences for underlining. If the terminal is incapable of underlining, but is capable of a standout mode then
that is used instead. If the terminal can overstrike, or handles underlining automatically, ul degenerates to cat(1). If the terminal can-
not underline, underlining is ignored.
OPTIONS -t terminal Override the terminal kind specified in the environment. If the terminal cannot underline, underlining is ignored. If the
terminal name is not found, no underlining is attempted.
-i Indicate underlining by a separate line containing appropriate dashes `-'; this is useful when you want to look at the
underlining which is present in an nroff(1) output stream on a CRT-terminal.
RETURN VALUES
ul returns exit code 1 if the file specified is not found.
FILES
/usr/share/lib/terminfo/*

mize the backward motion.
