I know it's not necessarily the way to go. I just wanted to show I've given it at least a minute of thought instead of just coming in here and basically demanding to be handed the code for custom shaped borders.
Code:
{\3c&H5FFFF5&}{\clip(m 406 660 l 498 660 l 423 717 l 453 626 l 482 717 )}{\an5\pos(!line.left+syl.center!,!line.middle-14!)}{\blur0\bord0\t(0,800,\bord20\blur23)}{\alpha&HFF\t(0,200,\alpha&H00)}
I placed a starshaped clip there that's masking everything but that growing border. I wondered if you can get an effect like that automagically in the right place once per line or even each character. Moving the starshaped clip around by changing all coordinates by hand everytime is brutal.
