}Expand description
How a cell’s underline is drawn — SGR 4 : Ps (#829).
This is the storage, and None is a member of it. There is no second boolean saying
whether the cell is underlined: CellFlags::UNDERLINE survives as a derived view bit so
existing consumers keep working, and the style is its only writer. So the two cannot disagree —
which is not a stylistic preference but the defect three of the four references demonstrably
pay for. alacritty’s display layer inserts a plain UNDERLINE over a cell that already carries
a curl and its renderer draws both rects; xterm.js has two readers that resolve the same
conflict in opposite directions, pinned by a test; xterm leaves both bits set after
CSI 4m; CSI 21m and lets each consumer pick a resolution. ghostty is the one where it is not
representable — its underline is an enum(u3) with none among the members and there is no
underline: bool — and that is the shape here.
Stored in the content word (bits 26..=28), not in a row side map: the packed cell is not
full, so the side-map
invariant
does not apply, and packing is what makes the style ride along for free everywhere a cell
moves — reflow, scroll, and the blank a wrapping wide glyph leaves behind. One path needed an
explicit carry and is worth naming rather than counting in: promote_cluster_to_wide /
relocate_cluster_wide synthesise the pair’s spacer from the pen rather than moving it, so
they take the style from the lead the same way they already take its extended attrs (ADR-0025
D4). A refuting pass found that one; the other three are free.
Variants§
None = 0
Not underlined. The absence is a member rather than a separate flag.
Single = 1
SGR 4 or 4:1 — one straight line.
Double = 2
Two straight lines — 4:2, and also the legacy SGR 21, which is the only value with
a second spelling (#830). Both land on this field, so SGR 24 clears either of them.
The legacy form is not unanimous in the prior art and the spec is what settles it: vte
reads 21 as cancel bold, so an application meaning “stop bold” gets a double underline
here and keeps its bold. SGR 22 is the arm that cancels bold.
Curly = 3
4:3 — a curl. The mark #829 carries end to end.
Dotted = 4
4:4 — a dotted line (#830). Drawn with a whole number of dots per cell, so the pattern
does not restart at a cell boundary.
Dashed = 5
4:5 — a dashed line (#830). One period per cell, with the dash split across the boundary
so adjacent cells’ dashes join.
