Abstract
Methods and computer systems render displays of text strings during bios activity by utilizing escape codes within the strings to signify that portions of the text strings are to be displayed in various formats. One escape code signifies one format, such as bold typeface while another escape code signifies another format, such as underlined. A display engine of the BIOS when generating the display of text strings encounters the escape codes, interprets them to determine the format for the subsequent text, and renders the display of the subsequent text in the corresponding format.
