I'm using WP=5, although I believe that WP=6 also works. I get visual
italics with MoDe 30, and visual underlining and bold underlining with
various MoDes, as shown in this color table:

For what it's worth, here are my MoDe settings in SETTINGS.DFL (which,
in Xy4, is a supplemental printer file for settings):


; Display modes
; Text modes
MD NM=7
MD BO=15
; For visual underlining in vDos:
MD UL=113
; For visual bold underlining in vDos:
MD BU=127
; For visual italics in vDos:
MD IT=30
; For visual bold italics in vDos (no known setting):
MD BI=11
MD RV=71
MD BR=79
MD SU=107
MD SD=27
;
; Delete modes (Redlining)
MD DN=71
MD DB=79
MD DU=67
MD DI=74
MD DO=78
MD DL=75

; Insert modes (Redlining)
MD IN=40
MD IB=47
MD IU=41
MD II=42
MD IO=46
MD IR=114
MD IL=43
MD IV=122
MD IS=37

;
; Flashing modes (add 128 to mode number)
MD FL=143
MD FU=244
MD FR=201
MD SO=13
;
; Footnotes
MD FN=23
;
; Display modes for which MD numbers must be reassigned. Numbers set
equal to themselves are for resetting when returning from another kind
of hardware:

;COLOR
;Italic subscript

;Italic superscript
MD 215=82
;Redline delete reverse
MD 219=116
;Italic underscore

Hope this helps.
