The problem is that underlines come out as bold.

So bold comes out the same way? Does anything produce underlines
properly in mdacon?

Not to my knowledge. http://www.developwebs.net/html/less3.php has a sample page with bold, italic, and underline, all of which show up on a VGA monitor the way they are specified by my lynx.lss file.

I am one of those people who cannot remember the meaning of colors and I was not able to use Wordperfect with red signifying underline or block or I forget what, and blue background. I managed to get a black background and underlines but not bold on a VGA monitor.

For the TTL monitor I specified bold italics underline as: bold, reverse, underline. They display as bold, normal, bold.

There may be some sort of conflict between reverse and underline and bold such that only one can display on a page - I ran across something to that effect. In DOS I can see bold and underline properly with lynx (I don't care about italics and don't recall how they show up). Lynx does show some things as reverse.

I don't have dosemu set up here to experiment with.

Unfortunately I need to use both bold and underline on some pages that I translate, such as birth certificates where some text is bold on the form, and the handwritten entries are translated underlined.
