MXP: no <b> (bold) tag and other text formatting

[xtian]

in addition it would be nice if you would implement some rudimentary text formatting tags. Otherwise servers (i.e. I) will have to implement checks and workarounds for Mudlet, as all other MXP clients I know to date, all parse the standard text formatting tags: <b>, <i>, <color> to name a few.

So, while the standard provides a way to check if a client implements some of these tags via the <SUPPORT> (which you dont implement as of now, see other bug report), it also would be easier if you added them either way, so that servers that didn't check for valid implementation of these tags wont have to retro-fit.

I agree with the OP - and this is several years later and this ought to be looked at...
