20-minute script i wrote, when remembered someone requesting a ruler tool.

verson 1.1

it calculates and displays distance (in pixels) between cursor and position you set.
hold "alt" and click mouse to set position, it'll be marked with white cross. distance is shown near cursor. continue holding "alt" to show connecting line. click mouse w/o holding "alt" to disable ruler.

update:

hotkey changet to "alt"

no need in disabling before setting new start position

there should be no conflicts between drawing lines with shift+alt and ruler

download: pastebin

i hope you'll find how to run scripts, if you don't know it already :p

huh, didn't know about setdebug(4). don't think i'd write this if i did)
