I have some questions for the group.

1) Can a multi-line value be rendered in a font different than the font
   used for the name of the object?

2) Can a single-line value be rendered in a font other than the system font?
   In particular, I want to put 120+ characters in a box.

3) How do you do integer arithmetic.  Version 1.2.2 does not like the
   percent-sign.  I'm having problems getting this script to work:

Select.Up:
global time.counter
get Starting_Value
put it into time.counter
End_Select.Up

Select.Down:
End_Select.Down

Second.Tick:
global time.counter, time.go
if time.go then
add 1 to time.counter
put abs(time.counter) into time.sec
put time.sec / 60 into object "obj.hour" -- this gives me a float
--put ((time.sec / 60) % 60) into object "obj.min"
--put time.sec % 60 into temp
put time.counter into object "obj.sec"  -- *kludge*
endif
End_Second.Tick
