    Nope.  HTML is unreadable to me.  Was that unclear?

    Yes, that is what it says.

    Yup, that too.

    You stated two things.

1: The Bat! has full HTML support.

    No, it does not.  It has partial HTML support.  Of course, if you've been
following this thread you'd understand that not even browsers have "full" HTML
support.

2: That the HTML support from The Bat! is provided from Microsoft DLLs.

    Incorrect, it is not.

    So I fail to see how my answers of "no and no" are inappropriate.

> I couldn't find anything on what HTML engine they use.

    Right.  I told you it wasn't the Microsoft engine.
