    Find a component that will honor text markup.
    Your protocol will need to send and receive text markup.
    Remember HTML stands for hyper text markup language.
    Look at this: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutor...ents/html.html
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
