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 en- vironment variable TERM. The file /etc/termcap is read to determine the appropriate sequences for underlining. If the terminal is inca- pable 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 under- line, underlining is ignored. The following options are available: -i Underlining is indicated by a separate line containing appro- priate 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 execution 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 14.3 October 7, 2020 UL(1)
