Attached is a patch (against v1.1.0) which modifies the filter_text module. A new parameter has been added, (called "frame"), which simply generates the current frame number as the string 'Frame: dddddd'. For my purposes, it was much easier to use frame numbers instead of a time stamps. The 'posdef' functionality is also changed. I wanted top-center and that option was unavailable. Why? As well, it was difficult to remember what value to specify. So, I changed posdef to use numeric keypad navigation:

   7  8  9
   4  5  6
   1  2  3

   corresponding to top-right, top-center, top-left, etc...

   Some option descriptions were also corrected.

I changed the default font location. /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType doesn't exist on modern distros. I changed it to /usr/share/fonts/corefonts (gentoo location). Keep or reject, up to you. Allan
