Usage:

 

OSD displays text on the desktop without a surrounding window, like TV or monitor prompts.

 

If you want to display multiple lines, insert the LF escape sequence (^N) in your text.  For example:

 

osd /pos=40,50 This is text with^Nmultiple lines.

 

If you specify the /V (vertical display) option, you cannot also display multiple lines of text.

 

You can combine the window positioning options.  For example:

 

osd /hcenter /vcenter /n Your text here

 

OSD will strip leading whitespace in text.  If you want to display the leading whitespace in your text, you will need to enclose it in single back quotes.
