Message-ID: <3073@cbnewsj.ATT.COM> Date: 29 Dec 89 14:28:40 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories Lines: 19 Hello, networld..... i am presently playing with terminfo and all it's "features", and i came across a feature that i want to employ in my programming. this is, using the underscore aspect of "tput", which is called by" "tput smul" and turned off by "rmul". My question: i beleive that there is a way to keep that intact whan i turn it off by inserting some sort of control char(s) in the file. Is this true? The man page is not that helpful in explaning this. I am using unix release 5.2.6b. If you are familiar with terminfo i would be gratefull to hear from you. Thank-you, and... Cheers.
