show text in italics.

[Vamsi Krishna]

Hi ,

well, is there any logic to display a text in italics in ruby.

like a simple program that shows text in italics?

ex: def text
puts" hi to all"
end
puts text

so i need to display "hi to all " in italics.

i know there is not. but want to try, and please reply if u know ....
thanks.

See this wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_color

In theory you could do

puts "\e[3mhi to all\e[0m"

But apparently italics is not widely supported. Bold and underline seem to
work in my Ubuntu terminal (\e[1m and \e[4m respectively).

Where are you displaying the text? At the console? In a window? Using shoes?

In the coonsole as well in an rhtml.

For console impossible, but in rhtml just surround the text with either
<em></em> or <i></i> tags, since rhtml is converted to html any tags around
the word will be shown.

Ahem... if you want italics, use <i>. If you want emphasis, use <em>.

This may be too subtle a distinction for most folk. "They both look the
same in my browser!" ;-)
