How to display inline hyperlinks in a form string field?

Hey y'all. I have a need to write log data with inline URLs into the 'comments' field on cmdb_ci. Ideally I would look like this OOB output from the Discovery Log:

I know how to turn this behavior on and off in the list views using parameter no_truncate=, but it has no effect on the form field which shows only as plain text:

Is there a way to get the form to render a string field like this (crude) mockup and have the hyperlinks still work?

I don't really want to alter the comments field, but I'd add a new field or popup or ?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hello @JeffOnline 

 

You could create HTML type field and store links as needed.
