I have this code:
Code: "Press any button to continue."→Str1
length(Str1→N
1
Repeat getKey
If dim(rand(15
Text(57,1,sub(Str1+" ",1+NAns,N
not(Ans
End
The only problem with this is that it doesn't let my full text blink:
Your problem is, is that spaces do not have the same width as normal characters. So, for example, the character P is equal to 3 or 4 spaces. In that way, you should have 94 spaces, one for each pixel.
EDIT:
Code: If dim(rand(15
seems to be always true 
rand(15 generates a list of 15 random float numbers from 0 to 1. So the dimension is always 15 -> that if-statement is always true

I tried 94 space, but that didn't work and shows exactly the same thing.
What would you suggest me to do with that if statement?[/img]
You should change your code as well as follows, otherwise you only draw N spaces instead of the 94.
Code: Text(57,1,sub(Str1+" ",1+94Ans,Nnot(Ans)+94Ans
You don't need that if-statement, only rand(15 is good enough for a time delay.
Welcome to Cemetech, RuuddeRuijter! You should take a moment to post in
our Introduce Yourself thread if you get a chance. PT_'s solution is a good one; another option would be to use lines to erase the text:
Code: For(X,Ymin,Ymin+6ΔY,ΔY
Line(Xmin,X,Xmax,X,0
End

Okay, I will try that as soon as I get home, thank you very much.

Thank you, I will post something in the introduce yourself section. I didn't think of drawing a line, thank you. Btw how can you type a Δ in the TI-84 plus calculator?
That delta is not a separate token on the calculators. You can find DeltaY in [VARS] - [WINDOW] - [DELTAX] or [DELTAY]

Oh okay. Thank you for clearing that up.

When I try this:
Code: "Press any button to continue."→Str1
length(Str1→N
1
Repeat getKey
rand(15
Text(57,1,sub(Str1+" ",1+94Ans,Nnot(Ans)+94Ans
I get this error ERR:DOMAIN next to (Ans)+94Ans
I'll now try the other solution.
Update2:

I tried this and got an ERR:SYNTAX on that last delta Y thing
Oops sorry, my mistake. It should be
Code: Text(57,1,sub(Str1+" ",1+NAns,Nnot(Ans)+94Ans
For that Syntax-error, are you sure you have typed the TOKEN DeltaY? Does it have an extra space after it?

Sorry for this very late answer, but I still don't have it working. How do I get that N before ans and not?I now got ERR:DOMAIN and my cursor stops at 94Ans
