>> FWIW, animator pro would do fine for this. You can create a file of "bogus text" and then have anipro read in a character, or whole line in at a time and display it in a definable window. Quite powerful really. << I have to admit that I am not as versed with Ani Pro as I should be. It must be a powerful package, but the interface is just … shocking. I am looking at the manual now, and see that the text dialogue boxes have Load/Save options for ascii text files, but I don't see how that would allow me to load a single word or line as you suggest. Are you suggesting that I write a POCO routine? That would seem difficult since I seem to have no reference for the language… is that supposed to be included with 1.3? I will dig further into your suggestion by spending a bit of quality time with Ani Pro this evening, but I would certainly appreciate a few more details thanks much! – Dan / n-Space, Inc.
