in your script file

Code:
void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AREA", "FUNCTION", true, 1);
}

void FUNCTION(string &in asEntity)
{
SetMessage("LANG", "ENTITY", 5.0f);
}

extra_lang
Code:
<CATEGORY Name="LANG">
<Entry Name="ENTITY">Type the text here you want to be shown</Entry>
</CATEGORY>

change it to your benefit ;D

I'm having problems with a similar issue,
how do I make it so when I look at an entity it displays a message? and I want it to always work when looking at the entity and not only once.
here's my script:
my .hps file
Code:
void OnStart ()
{
SetEntityPlayerLookAtCallback("shirt1", "LookingShirtFunc1", false);
}

void LookingShirtFunc1(string &in entity, int alState)
{
SetMessage("Messages", "Message01", 3);
}

my .lang file
Code:
<LANGUAGE>
    <CATEGORY Name="Messages">
        <Entry Name="Message01">Hello world!</Entry>
    </CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>
