I am currently making a OS with a GUI. What I would like to happen, is the GUI text is printed in the centre. Does anyone know how I would be-able to do this?

This Should do it

local function center(str)
local width = term.getSize()
local x,y = term.getCursorPos()
term.setCursorPos((width-#str)/2,y)
return str
end

Then just Call it using

print(center(string here))
