public class Link
extends JButton
implements MouseListener, ActionListener

A button that simulates a selectable URL link. The text is blue and underlined, and selecting the link generates an ActionEvent to registered listeners. Though this is a JButton it currently does not support rendering an icon along with text. The setLinkColor() method allows you to render the link in a different color.
