Since you are upgrading from 1.15 to 1.19.2, reading the README would
have helped:
Grotty
------
o Color support has been added, using the SGR (ISO 6429, sometimes
called ANSI color) escape sequences.
o SGR escape sequences are now used by default for underlining and
bold printing also, no longer using the backspace character trick.
To revert to the old behaviour, use the `-c' switch.
Note that you have to use the `-R' option of `less' to make SGR
escapes display correctly. On the other hand, terminal programs
and consoles like `xterm' which support SGR sequences natively can
directly display the output of grotty. Consequently, the options
`-b', `-B', `-u', and `-U' work only in combination with `-c' and
are ignored silently otherwise.
For the `man' program, it may be necessary to add the `-R' option
of `less' to the $PAGER environment variable; alternatively, you
can use `man's `-P' option (or adapt its configuration file
accordingly). See man(1) for more details.
o If the environment variable GROFF_NO_SGR is set, SGR output is
disabled, reverting to the old behaviour.
o A new special \X'tty: sgr n' has been added; if n is non-zero or
missing, enable SGR output (the default).
o If the new option `-i' is used (only in SGR mode), grotty sends
escape sequences to set the italic font attribute instead of the
underline attribute for italic fonts. Note that many terminals
don't have support for this (including xterm).
