So it would look something like \D'l 0 address@hidden' then? What advantage does this provide over the \l escape?\D'l address@hidden 0' The advantage is that it draws a "real", *continuous* line if the device allows it (and a sequence of dashes with the tty device). The minus character is unsuitable for drawing lines on a hi-res device because its spacing is (purposely) too generous.
Good enough for me. I chose the minus in the first place because it provides the right amount of spacing. -- Larry Kollar k o l l a r @ a l l t e l . n e t Unix Text Processing: the Revival http://www.alltel.net/~kollar/utp
