>Environment:

	

>Description:

	On a terminal without underline escape sequences, the 'joe'
	editor displays control chars without any special formatting;
	i.e. ^A would look like "a".  On xterms, the letter shows up as
	underlined.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Load up joe.

	type in `a (puts a ^a into the editor screen)
-or-
	type in ^K-H (opens help window; group titles "CURSOR",
	"SEARCH", etc, should be underlined)

>Fix:
	
	patch joe so that if underline is unavailable, but bold is,
	display underlined characters with the bold escape codes.
