2. flag - governs the behavior of the dialog

   3 - don't display message, just wait

The text will be flowed onto the screen, wrapping as needed. If a hard line break is desired, use the '~' character, or the carriage return, ASCII value 13.

The space available in the display monitor may be small in some video modes, and the message display does not scroll. Make the message short and to the point.
