yes.

You could make a sub-program to store values A-Z (and others) to a list and
then recover the list later...

You can't...  :(

I don't think so.  You could make a routine to figure out how many letters
the text is, and how many letters the screen can hold.  Then the routine
could figure out the best starting position for the text...  Easy?  ;)
