Emacs already has code for that (written by Eli mainly for his DOS port). The question is how to make it available for man.el. BTW, xterm natively supports SGR since a longer time already. The same is true for the console of GNU/Linux. It's a kind of irony that e.g. `groff -Tlatin1 -man foo.1' sent to xterm displays nicely while `man foo' doesn't if not configured properly. Werner
