Connelly writes the following with regard to Vaxmates: >Well, we got a few and are trying to run Wordperfect on them. It installs and >runs fine, but we can't seem to get underlining to work. Yes, we have tried >underlining, but we either get reverse video (when selecting reverse video for >underlining), or very dim characters (when selecting underlining for >underlining). In either case, no actual underlining. >Has anyone seen this on other PC/AT (80286) compatibles? DEC claims full CGA >emulation, but... -------------- If it is full CGA emulation, there won't be any underlining. IBM CGA does not support underlining, and Word Perfect running on an IBM usually uses boldfacing or a special color to represent underlining. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Marty Zimmerman, Univ of Idaho, Moscow, ID USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------
