Good, now I want to show you how to do it with COM-object <strong>htmlfile</strong>. It looks like similar way with mshta.exe:</p>

So, it helps to access for <strong>screen</strong> which keeps data about screen resolution.</p>

For instance: puts 'String'.bold.underline.blink.red for something truly hideous. Aside from the colors (all are supported, but I haven't put in support for background colors as of the time of this post), cursor placement (ymmv based on the term type), screen clearing, bold, underline, blink reverse, conceal are all handled as well.</p>
