When choosing fonts, we have the ability to bold the text and/or italicize it. But the text cannot be underlined. Creating a border is an option, but that underlines the entire cell and not just the text.

That one probably isn't going happen.

Even though you see it in applications, "Underline" actually isn't a font property. Bold and Italic are things that effect the font type, but underline is just a line slapped underneath.

But even though it's just a line slapped underneath, rendering it takes calculations that I fear will add too much processing overhead to the console.

That makes sense. Thanks.
