Followup: A sample texture for the word box is available here.
Also, a cleaner version of word wrap as written by Chris Omega (not used, but figured I'd post his) -
CODE
string autoWordwrap(integer charsPerLine, string text) {
list words = llParseString2List(text, [" "], []);
integer numWords = llGetListLength(words);
string ret = "";
string curLine = "";
integer i;
for(i = 0; i < numWords; i++) {
string word = llList2String(words, i);
if (llStringLength(word) >= charsPerLine) {
curLine += word + "\n";
ret += curLine;
curLine = "";
} else if (llStringLength(word) + llStringLength(curLine) < charsPerLine) {
curLine += word + " ";
} else {
curLine += "\n";
ret += curLine;
curLine = word + " ";
}
}
ret += curLine;
return ret;
}I should note I also have freebies of these available on my plot (Landmark included with the actual items), but I'm not too sure about board advertising... so for now, omitted.
Enjoy.
PS: If there's sufficient interest, I'll personally comment the bejeezus out of my own code (and ask Chris to do the same with his). For now though, enjoy the free script.
