Try this:


(
	global GW_displayText
	unregisterRedrawViewsCallback GW_displayText
	fn GW_displayText =
	(
		wPos = 40 -- horizontal position max = gw.getWinSizeX() 0 is left
		hPos = 40 -- vertical position max = gw.getWinSizeY() . 0 is lower left
		gw.htext [wPos,hPos,0] "Potatoes" color:red

		gw.updateScreen() 
	)
	registerRedrawViewsCallback GW_displayText
)
