Clearly I don't know exactly what I mean, or I wouldn't need to ask, but I
don't think it needs much imagination and if if you keep replying to my
question with another question clearly I'm not going to get anywhere.
I mean if I have an nroff file that starts:
.\" DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE! It was generated by help2man 1.28.
.TH LS "1" "July 2002" "ls (fileutils) 4.1.11" "User Commands"
.SH NAME
ls \- list directory contents
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B ls
[\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fIFILE\fR]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
...
then [\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fIFILE\fR]... displays as underlined text in an xterm
`with underlining' and with a magenta foreground in one `without underlining'.
