The flying bird ("goose") advances every time the running program reaches a label. Due to a bug in the internal display routines the goose can be replaced by a custom character or message: As soon as an error occurs and the program does not stop (because the error ingore flag 25 was set), any other message currently in the display (via VIEW or AVIEW) will scroll the same way the goose usually does.

So simply VIEW or AVIEW your message, SF 25, generate an error... et voilà.
