No, it is not. Only SayText and SayText2 have that type of capabilities.

Interesting, I hadn't seen that before. Well, if it is possible with SM, it is possible with SP. Do you have a link to the script that does that so we can take a look?

I figured it out after a bit of searching. As far as I know, this only works in CS:GO:
Syntax: Select all
from events import Event
from messages import HintText
message = HintText(message="This is a <font color='#FF0000'>test</font> \n" +
"<font color='#00FF00'>This is another</font> <font color='#0000FF'>test</font>")
@Event
def player_say(game_event):
message.send()
Very interesting, thank you for bring this to our attention!!! I did just test this in CS:S, and verified it does not work for that game. I guess there could be other games it works for, but this is the first I have ever heard about this.

I did a bit of testing on this and a lot of HTML codes seem to work. However stuff like ability to hyperlink and display images is still a mystery to me.
A few codes I found that work. (<b>, <p>, <li>, <font>, <i>, etc)
To display text larger than 64 units. You will have to use <table> and construct a table with a width and height though. Otherwise the text won't display.
E.g. <font size='64'>Test Text</font>
UPDATE: Giving a table a background colour, will make no text appear at all.
