event ExMsg shows a message above an object or character, like the text that appears above people when they speak. Only you see it; nothing is sent to the server.

Parameter Meaning
id The object or character, for example #CharID for yourself.
font Font number, see the table below.
colour Colour (hue) number. 0 is the default.
message The text. $ starts a new line.
Font Look
0 Big, with dark edges.
1 Small, with a white drop shadow.
2 Big, with a white drop shadow.
3 Small, with dark edges.
4 Big and fancy.
5 Medium.
6 Tiny.
7 Small, recessed.
8 Runic letters for A–Z and some symbols; moon phases for a few others.
9 Tiny.

The command calls a function inside the client. On a client version where that function’s address is not known, it does nothing.
