To translate nroff's underlining to the underlining (actually I
think I used italics) for my Epson printers, I just created termcap
entries for them defining only us and ue, and then filtered the
nroff output through ul -tlq1500 (for example) on its way to the
printer.  It seemed simpler than fiddling with reconfiguring nroff.
In fact, I did the same thing for the LaserJet before troff2lj was
working.
