UL(1) General Commands Manual UL(1) NAME ul -- do underlining SYNOPSIS ul [-i] [-t terminal] [file ...] DESCRIPTION The ul utility reads the named files (or 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 vari- able TERM. The file /etc/termcap is read to determine the appropriate se- quences 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 cannot underline, underlining is ignored. The following options are available: -i Underlining is indicated by a separate line containing appropriate dashes `-'. -t terminal Overrides the terminal type specified in the environment with terminal. ENVIRONMENT The LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE and TERM environment variables affect the execu- tion of ul as described in environ(7). EXIT STATUS The ul utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. SEE ALSO man(1), mandoc(1) HISTORY The ul command appeared in 3.0BSD. FreeBSD 15.1 October 7, 2020 UL(1)
