text output that can include variables?

I want to have a public document that can be accessed by the link without a login that allows people to set parameters and shows the results

I can do this with configuration variables and sharing permissions to affect the sketches and resulting parts.

What I have not found a good way to do is to show the results of calculations. Ideally I would like to have a text box that I could populate with a formula (including newlines) that the user can cut-n-paste from. This could be in the parts studio, or in a different tab, as long as I can access the variables calculated in the parts studio

right now I'm fudging this with the fs text box featurescript and careful editing of the text to induce linewraps at reasonably acceptable point.

This is for a CNC router that positions itself via a belt to each corner, you enter measurements and get coordinates of whee the corners actually are, and it shows how much error you get if you have extra bent length the system doesn't know about
