I think calling BOLD BOLD is the right thing to do (who came up with the bogus WHITE in the first place anyway---my terminal is black letters on white background, thank you). Even though some scripts seem to already use awk, they are all used for very small and trivial processing without exercising anything remotely fancy e.g. hexadecimal \xXX quoting or match() function, so I wouldn't be surprised if we see breakage reports from minority platforms. But I do not think of a trivial way to express combination of attributes by extending the existing sed script (we can write loops and do the same computation as your awk script does, but it does not reduce the complexity nor risk of portability issues), so let's see what happens. We already use Perl everywhere, which we might end up using for this if there are platforms that have issues with your awk script.
