"r","c" are the screen location of the upper-left corner of the popup window.

"popupnum" is the popup window number; if popupnum is not specified, 1 is used. "popupnum" is an expression.

"exp" is the message to display.

NOTE: Popups that overlap another popup must be taken down in the opposite order in which they were displayed. "r" and "c" may each be negative to specify centering in that direction. If not specified, the popup is centered both vertically and horizontally.
