What it does
TextShaderConstantByName sets ShaderConstantByName on a Text object. It takes iTextIndex (an integer), szName (a string), value1 (a float), value2 (a float), value3 (a float) and value4 (a float), and returns nothing. iTextIndex is the id of a Text object, the one CreateText returned: it is how the call knows what to act on.
