Textbox Actions

One of the most basic entities in VNgen, textboxes are purely decorative and do not serve any mechanical purpose. However, a good textbox is an important part of any visual novel's UI design, and more importantly, ensures readability across a variety of backgrounds and scenes. And basic or not, textboxes still support the full range of available actions, including color blending and scripted animation support!
