You obviously didn't, DMIfonts fully supports this.

If you're talking about LummoxJR's library, maybe Calus doesn't have BYONDScape subscibtion access. I know I wish I did. :(

You could easily do it yourself by:
•Creating a text2list() function (or search the forums for it)
•Loop through the newly created list.
•For everything looped through, add it to the overlays and increase the pixel_y
•Bingo! You've got a name overlay systme thingie.

Then there's your answer: Subscribe to BYONDscape. It's cheap, it's easy, and it's definitely worth it.
