I am trying to put text below or above my avatar name. How do I use the script SetText and where do I get it? Or where I can find more info?
Thanks,
Cheryl

to understand llSetText, look at this.
-----------------------------
string text = "YOUR TEXT GOES HERE";
default
{
state_entry()
{
llSetText(text,<1,1,1>,1);
}
}
-----------------------------

For a more useful one use this that i threw together real quick. type "title" followed by your text to change it.
-----------------------------
integer CommandIs(string msg,string cmd)
{
return llSubStringIndex(msg,cmd) == 0;
}
Parse(string cmd)
{

if (CommandIs(cmd,"title";))
{
string name = llGetSubString(cmd,6,-1);
if (name == "title";)
llSetText("",<0,1,0>,1.0);
else
llSetText(name,<0,1,0>,1.0);
}
}
default
{
state_entry()
{
llListen(0,"",llGetOwner(),"";);
}
on_rez(integer start_param)
{
llResetScript();
}
listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string msg)
{
Parse(msg);
}
}
