Superscripts The UP rendition control the enclosed text to be printed one-half line above
the current line. It looks like this:
\UP (
text
\)
Normally, TFORM moves the current line and all following lines down half
a line to make room for the superscript, unless you tell it not to with a SET
SPACING FIXED command. For example:
This line contains a
superscript.
If the output device can't handle superscripts, TFORM issues a warning
message and prints the superscript as normal text on the current line.
Underlining The UNDERLINE rendition control prints an underscore character under
every character in the enclosed text, including blanks. It looks like this:
\UNDERLINE (
text
\)
If you want individual words to be underlined, you'll need to specify an
UNDERLINE escape sequence for each word.
One escape sequence completely underlines this line.
It took nine rendition controls to underline this
line.
