XyzzyText is a new version of Xytext with some advanced features:

  • Efficiency! You can now control an entire linkset with just one script.
  • Flexible Speed vs Lag. Just drop in plug-and-play slave scripts to increase rendering speed. (More than 4-5 slaves not recommended, there is diminishing returns)
  • Ease of use. There is no need to know link numbers. Simply name the child prims xyzzytext-banknumber-cellnumber.
  • To use, pass the bank number to use in the "key" field of the link message of DISPLAY_STRING/EXTENDED.

XyzzyText - 5 Character

Example:

Display Prims named: 
xyzzytext-0-0 xyzzytext-0-1
xyzzytext-1-0 xyzzytext-1-1

Quickstart:

* Store all scripts in your inventory
* Rez a box
* Drop the prim setup script in it (You now have one unit, name it xyzzytext-0-0)
* Make a row of four of these prims (xyzzytext-0-0 xyzzytext-0-1,xyzzytext-0-2,xyzzytext-0-3)
* Move a copy of this row a little down, and rename the new row(xyzzytext-1-0 xyzzytext-1-1,xyzzytext-1-2,xyzzytext-1-3)
* Do this for every row you make
* Create a big box that serves as the board-background(mainprim)
* Link all prims with the mainprim(selected last), so the mainprim keeps yellow after linking(root-prim)
* Copy the main script and usage script into the root prim
* Type something, and check if it all works
* Flatten the prims, so the text looks straight
* Consider adding slave scripts to the root prim if you have a lot of rows

Usage:

integer DISPLAY_STRING      = 204000; 
integer DISPLAY_EXTENDED    = 204001; 
integer REMAP_INDICES       = 204002;
