Underlining can only be found in wordprocessing applications such as
Word. To underline text in CS you have to draw a line underneath the
text

Actually, that's not true - in word processing progs you usually have
the option to "bold" or "italicize" Roman only fonts - that is
something that won't be found in true layout/design apps. But the
option to underline, no matter how DTP a technique is, can be found in
pro quality apps.

Select your text (either by swiping it with the text tool or selecting
an individual text block with the select tool) - now refer to the top
toolbar/dock (directly underneath the menu bar) and locate the
character "mini-palette." You will see the word "character" in a
link-like style - click on it and you will see a flyout/pop-up
character menu - near the bottom is a button with a "T" underlined on
it. Click this button and you'll have underlined the selected text.
Even the most professional design/illy apps will have this feature -
mainly I think, for comping web sites? In any case, all of Adobe's
design apps that Iuse hav this option . . .

Hmmm, correct me if I am wrong. Word processing aps (and QuarkXpress)
have the ability to put typefaces in bold, italic, with a shadow,
strikethrough, underline... but as far as I know, these are NOT
postscript commands. The result is garbled text or font replacement
when you send your file to a service bureau in order to produce films
for offsetplates.

Yeah, the other commands, AFAIK are strictly word processor fakery . .
.. but Adobe, in all it's glorious forms, has kept the underlining
option (maybe for comping web sites??). In InDesign, if I remember
correctly, it's even a "style" consideration/setting.
Personally, I'm anti-DTP techniques . . . can't stand "shadow" or
strikethrough . . . but underline *does* seem to have its place
sometimes . . .

In Quark, IF the font name is agreeable, when you add a bold or italic
"style" Quark will use that version of the font instead of applying a style.
It's tricky though, so I rarely apply any styles with the exception of
underline. I've never had a problem with underline.
