Is there a way to control where text is placed, other than the top corner..

an example would be if the player examined an object a discription would appear at the bottom of the screen

Thanks
Nige

You can't change where the Pipmak terminal text appears, but that one
isn't meant for use in a finished game anyway. It's intended more as a
debugging tool.

The upcoming 0.2.7 release has support for drawing text (in arbitrary
fonts, sizes, colors) onto patches, so that you can place it anywhere
you want.

You'll be able to do that.
