Troll-Brain	I know the DisplayTextToPlayer is faster to use to DisplayTextFromPlayer. Cause the difference of two letters xD But does someone know a more interesting difference ?

If you use DisplayTextFromPlayer., you can do this:

JASS:

function message takes nothing returns nothing
    call DisplayTimedTextFromPlayer(Player(0), 0,0,5, "All the units controlled by %s are teh best!!")
endfunction

Will show a message like this:

Quote:

All the units controlled by WorldEdit are teh best!!

moyack	As far as I know, there is only that keyword "%s" is to get the player name in that function.
