Class Styled

java.lang.Object

ecs100.Styled

public class Styled
extends java.lang.Object

The Styled class provides styled output (bold, italic, or underlined) by which a program can print out text into a styled window, separate from the text area.

The styled window does not allow input.

The methods of the Styled class are all static, so that the Styled.print and Styled.setBold(true) methods can be called from any point in the program.

The program must have created an UI window in order to use the styled facility, but there is no need to explicitly create a styled window or initialise the styled facility from inside the program.
