here's what the man pages have to say about pfuDrawMessage/pfuDrawMessageCI

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     void pfuResetPanel(pfuPanel *p);

     void pfuResetWidget(pfuWidget *w);

Page 2

pfuGUI(3pf) IRIS Performer 1.2 libpfutil Reference Pages pfuGUI(3pf)

  void pfuDrawMessage(pfChannel *chan, const char *msg, long rel, long just,
                        float x, float y, long size, long cimode);

DESCRIPTION
     Simple graphical user interface library for the IRIS Performer sample
     application, Perfly. It uses pfDataPools to store multiply accessed data
     so as to work well in multiprocessing applications.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

can anyone give me more details about this routine :

        what is long rel ? (default seems to be 'PFU_MSG_PIPE')
        what are acceptable fonts (other than 'PFU_FONT_BIG')
        how does cimode affect the text ?
        AND - is there a manual entry at ALL for pfuDrawMessageCI
        and how to do such things as change the TEXT colour ??

also if there is a better way to put text onto the overlay plane - let me
know.
