# mIRC formatting
Orbit renders and lets you compose classic IRC formatting. Use the composer's toolbar (**B** / *I* /
underline / colour), or the keyboard:
| Style | Key | Code |
|-------|-----|------|
| Bold | Ctrl/Cmd+B | `\x02` |
| Italic | Ctrl/Cmd+I | `\x1D` |
| Underline | Ctrl/Cmd+U | `\x1F` |
| Strikethrough | — | `\x1E` |
| Monospace | — | `\x11` |
| Colour | toolbar | `\x03FF,BB` |
| Hex colour | toolbar | `\x04RRGGBB` |
| Reset | — | `\x0F` |
Colours use the 99-entry **mIRC palette** (`\x03` followed by a 12 digit foreground, optionally
`,background`). Orbit's composer writes these codes for you; incoming messages from any client are
rendered with full colour and styling.
Formatting is "sticky" — turn on bold and it stays on for the next message, exactly like classic
clients.
