I think this is the part that you missed, albeit maybe a bit obscure: 
you _must_ enclose your text in "<p>" and "</p>" in order for it to be 
interpreted as html.

So you're doing everything right in the first place, you just need to 
enclose your message in those tags.

Try:
answer "<p><b>This is the answer!</b></p>"

</pre>
