What it does
TextColorBlue takes textID (an integer), and answers an integer. That is the first of 2 forms. textID is the id of a Text object, the one CreateText returned: it is how the call knows what to act on.

Form 1, the command hands back the id
text = CreateText("hello")DO Print(TextColorBlue(text)) Sync()LOOPForm 2, you choose the id yourself
