+== NAME
+
+colcrt - filter nroff output for CRT previewing
+
+== SYNOPSIS
+
+*colcrt* [options] [_file_ ...]
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+*colcrt* provides virtual half-line and reverse line feed sequences for terminals without such capability, and on which overstriking is destructive. Half-line characters and underlining (changed to dashing `-') are placed on new lines in between the normal output lines.
+
+== OPTIONS
+
+*-*, *--no-underlining*::
+Suppress all underlining. This option is especially useful for previewing _allboxed_ tables from *tbl*(1).
+
+*-2*, *--half-lines*::
+Causes all half-lines to be printed, effectively double spacing the output. Normally, a minimal space output format is used which will suppress empty lines. The program never suppresses two consecutive empty lines, however. The *-2* option is useful for sending output to the line printer when the output contains superscripts and subscripts which would otherwise be partially invisible.
+
+include::man-common/help-version.adoc[]
+
+== HISTORY
+
+The *colcrt* command appeared in 3.0BSD.
+
+== BUGS
+
+Should fold underlines onto blanks even with the *-* option so that a true underline character would show.
+
+Can't back up more than 102 lines.
+
+//TRANSLATORS: Keep {plus} untranslated.
+General overstriking is lost; as a special case '|' overstruck with '-' or underline becomes '{plus}'.
+
+Lines are trimmed to 132 characters.
+
+Some provision should be made for processing superscripts and subscripts in documents which are already double-spaced.
+
+== EXAMPLES
+
+A typical use of *colcrt* would be:
+
+____
+*tbl exum2.n | nroff -ms | colcrt - | more*
+____
