Not to mention NATIVE which includes files PRTEST.DO and PASTEX.DO that make printer diagnosis easy and allow easy copy/paste of printer escape sequences. As far as making Italics happen on-screen at a remote end, it depends on what terminal emulation the far end employs. Does it support transition between upright and Italic typeface? What control codes engage the typeface transitions? Unless you have answers to these questions, or if the far end may be a mixture of users with no consistent terminal emulation, there's nothing you can do about far end display.
