"Advanced text handling
At the SIGS conference, Ted Faison of Faison Computing Inc. demonstrated
the sophisticated text handling implemented in the JTextComponent class,
which has SGML-like capabilities. JFC applications can support rich
text, including multiple fonts, sizes, colors, highlighting, and
embedded pictures. Complex layout will be supported, allowing developers
to assign an element to a box to constrain its position and have other
text elements flow around it."
<SARCASM>That sounds like SGML alright!</>
Does anyone know if there is a kernel of truth in the reference to SGML?
