Public bug reported:

In the MUD text screen, you can right-click to get a context menu.  The
option "Copy HTML" generates code from the selected text and places it
on the clipboard.  A problem is encountered where the greater-than
symbol ">" is coded as &rt; in the output - this should likely be coded
as > instead.  The rendered html inserts a literal "&rt;" in place of
">" when viewed in a HTML browser.
