Subj : Where is node status output/display configured?

So I think when a user action is taken, it's printed to all connected users'
screens, yes? How would I control the X/Y location (and color) 

I see in the default command shell: 

# Update node status
node_action node_main
async

But where can I fiddle with text color, positioning? Maybe in text.dat? Not
sure which one tho...

Why? The node status seems to "interrupt" users between menus, e.g. displays
with a pause, clears the screen, etc. I plan to use SBB's display codes to show
the status text (lock it to an X:Y position), maybe display for 3 seconds,
clear it, then display the next one, etc., without re-loading whatever menu the
user is using. That's the plan, anyway!

Any help much appreciated, in terms of where that display is controlled from :)
