set messages in a standalone/collective

Thinksamuel's icon

I want to be able to change the texts of messages in a standalone. However, when I do that with the textobject, I always end up with text in front of the text. For example "text hello" Is there a way to remove the text prefix?

yes!

use the object 'route' and use like 'route text'
