Messenger is the bit of code that manages the overlays in the graphics window. Currently this includes things like indicating what song is playing:

add screen shots

These overlays can’t be altered, but you can add your own customized messages—either as a one-shot message or a saved message that you can send over and over again. For example: “Tip your waitress!” or "Drink Specials for the next hour!"

To send a message:

  1. Select Video → Messenger Message
  2. Type your message.
  3. Click on Show if you want the message sent immediately.
  4. Click on Later if you want to send it later.
  5. To send a saved message, select Video→ Messenger Message; then click on Display Recent Messenger Message.

kJams can store only one message at a time, but you can send an instant message without overwriting what you’ve stored.
