It looks like DrawText doesn't like multi-line string literals, it's reading them in as one long line that ends up mostly off of the screen and doesn't respond to escape characters (such as "\n") embedded in the multi-line string in order to try and simulate "wrapping". Either I'm missing some undocumented param or DrawText was only meant to draw a single line of text at a time. Of course, I can write a loop for this, but that incurs a performance penalty, especially with longer bits of text and seems to be a needlessly complex solution. My suggestion is to allow DrawText the ability to handle multi-line strings in LUA or have it renamed to DrawSingleLineText, since that's what it does.
