RFC 1523 A text/enriched MIME Content-type September 1993
Thus text/enriched data that looks like this:
This is
a single
line
This is the
next line.
This is the
next paragraph.
should be displayed by a text/enriched interpreter as follows:
This is a single line
This is the next line.
This is the next paragraph.
The formatting commands, not all of which will be implemented by all
implementations, are described in the following sections.
Formatting Commands
The text/enriched formatting commands all begin with
and end with , affecting the formatting of the text
between those two tokens. The commands are described here, grouped
according to type.
Font-Alteration Commands
The following formatting commands are intended to alter the font in
which text is displayed, but not to alter the indentation or
justification state of the text:
Bold -- causes the affected text to be in a bold font. Nested
bold commands have the same effect as a single bold
command.
Italic -- causes the affected text to be in an italic font.
Nested italic commands have the same effect as a single
italic command.
Fixed -- causes the affected text to be in a fixed width font.
Nested fixed commands have the same effect as a single
fixed command.
