              <m2><b>XPUI_LEFT_BLANK</b> - Blanks out the information panel.  You should insert this in the PRE function of the Abort page if you are using time counters in the installer.  After XPUI_LEFT_MESSAGE is called, this is called automatically.</m2><br>

              <m2><b>XPUI_LEFT_SETTIME</b></m2><font color=#294F75> "# Minutes"</font><m2> - Sets the text on the information panel to "# Minutes".  You can call this anytime after .GUIInit is called by the NSIS core.  You can also insert XPUI_LEFT_SETTIME "Less than 1 minute" or XPUI_LEFT_SETTIME "Sometime in the next millennium" or whatever you want.</m2><br>
              <br>
              <m2><b>XPUI_LEFT_MESSAGE</b></m2><font color=#294F75> "Text at top" "Body Text" Type#</font><m2> - Shows a color-theme aware message box on the left info panel.  This must be used in a custom page function.  Replace Type# with 1 (OK button), 2 (OK/Cancel buttons), or 3 (Yes/No buttons).  To get the return, use <code>ReadINIStr $var $PLUGINSDIR\MBSide.ini Settings State</code>.  The return value will be either 1 (OK for Type 1), 2 (OK for type 2 or Yes), or 3 (Cancel or No).  After you get the return value, you need to delete the file manually.  Example:</m2><br>
