Do: textutils.slowPrint("par1Str") where "par1Str" is the text you want it to slowly print.

or you can do "oldschool" ^^ like
write("H")
sleep(0,1)
write("e")
sleep(0,1)
write("l")
sleep(0,1)
write("l")
sleep(0,1)
write("o")
but it's a lot of code ^^
write("H")
sleep(0,1)
write("e")
sleep(0,1)
write("l")
sleep(0,1)
write("l")
sleep(0,1)
write("o")
but it's a lot of code ^^

You can also set the speed.
speed = 5 string = "A string!" textutils.slowPrint(string, speed)

You can also shortcut it.
function sprint(text) textutils.slowPrint(text) endType that at the top, when you want a slowprint just type:
sprint "Insert text here!"

local sprint = textutils.slowPrint sprint("Text Here")And you can use the time parameter:
sprint("Text", 3)

Or you can code your own function. Like this:
function slowPrint(text, time) for i = 1, text:len() do io.write(text:sub(i, i)) sleep(time) end io.write("n") end slowPrint("Hello, World!", .5)
