[Tutor] Text Directly to Screen?

[Aaron Elbaz]

Hi,

My question has to do with outputting text.

Normally, you ouput to a console or a gui...but for my task, a hack
might be needed..

What I want to do is output text *directly* to the screen. And if
possible, restrict the window area to specific dimensions (top right
in mind). It should basically be like a layer of Cellophane over all
other windows, so that users can't interact, they only 'see' the
output of the chat session, and this chat session would be visible
over all windows, including the native OS gui.

It sounds awfully cool, but awfully complicated too. I'm not sure
where to start looking..

Any ideas?

-thanks
