LinkLabel
JLinkLabel is a web link-like Swing label component. It allows customization of the link color, the hover color when the cursor is over the link and the press color when the link is pressed. A hand cursor appears when the cursor moves over the link to indicate that it can be pressed. The JLinkLabel class extends the Swing JLabel component.
