Arguments
textsize
Will display the text using text size relative to 1.
lle | lri | ule | uri txt text
Will display text in lower left | lower right | upper left | upper right corner of the screen.

No shadow on numbers.
ita
Italic numbers.
fam 1 | 2 | ... | 9
Use font family 1 / 2 / 3 /.../9
coor xcoor ycoor | xcoor ycoor zcoor
Position in world coordinates xcoor ycoor for fixed x y placement (not using the fol argument) or xcoor ycoor zcoor for using the fol argument.
screen xpix ypix
Position from lower left corner in pixel positions xpix ypix.
col whi | red | gre | ...
Select color for display.
col r g b
Select color for display using r g b values.
use

fol
Use the follower for the text to follow the camera. In that case the command must know the x y and z coordinates to place the text. This is achieved with arguments cur or coor or poi.
poi pointnumber
Display the text in the poisition of point pointnumber of active data. Points are counted from 1.
txt text
To display a text, put it in braces or double quotes if the text contains spaces.
