Err...gps?

There's probably already something similar, if you can explain in a bit more detail what you'd like it do then we can suggest something.

Call it a hunch, but I don't think that there is a GPS system in WoW... now there are map coords... but I don't know if that's what you mean.

Or did you mean DPS?

Again, if you can explain exactly what you want then we can help. So far we know you want a certain colour in the corner of the screen depending on your current co-ords and debuffs, which basically makes no sense.

its hard for me to explane
there would be more then one color, one for the coord and one for debuffs

like if i died then the debuff one would be grey
if i was bleeding then it would be red

and at the same time on the other color ( im going to refer to ab)
if i where at stables then the color would be blue
GM= gold Farm = dark red = LM = grey BS = dark blue

get it know?

I don't really see the point in it but okay.

The Lua manual is here (http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/).
WoWWiki's has the closest to a complete API for WoW, here (http://www.wowwiki.com/Portal:Interface_customization).
Tutorial for making your first mod here (http://www.worldofwar.net/forums/showthread.php?t=375691).

If you have specific questions just ask.
