This uses the underline
mode.
Figure 6-5. The underline mode
As shown in Figure 6-5, the underline mode is continuous, but
some word processing and other applications programs produce an
underline that leaves spaces between characters as demonstrated in the
printout below.
This
uses
the under-line
character
If your software prints this type of underline, it is using the
LX-86’s underline character (ASCII %), not the underline mode.
Because the underline character is only five dots wide, it does not fill
the spaces between characters. If you prefer a continuous underline,
you may be able to use the underline mode through one of the
methods we discussed in Chapter 4.
Master Select
The LX-86 has a special ESCape code called Master Select that
allows you to choose any possible combination of eight different
modes: pica, elite, condensed, emphasized, double-strike,
double-width, italic, and underline. The format of the Master
Select code is ESCape ‘!” followed by a number that is calculated
by adding together the values of the modes listed below:
underline 128
italic 64
