	Globally switch MText masks on/off.
	If you need to globally switch standard text masks for selected MText objects on or off (or toggle), you can use the LISP utility TMaskOnOff. You can download it from www.cadstudio.cz/download. Load the LSP file with `APPLOAD` and run the command `TMASKON`, `TMASKOFF` or `TMASKONOFF`. NB: for standard masks you cannot use the `TEXTMASK` and `TEXTUNMASK` commands
