Abstract

A display generating system, particularly a computer or mobile client system, in which a system message (by which is meant an unsolicited prompt from a computer system to a user) is displayed to a user in a manner particularly contemplated as attracting the attention of the user. Accommodating such a system message in the small screen area available in a mobile client computer is a particular problem, addressed and solved as here described.
