(written @ v1.2.7)

add to function draw(), before the text gets displayed (replace outlineColor with one of your choosing, obv). alternatively, use textColor for the outline and white for the text itself.

love.graphics.setColor(outlineColor)
love.graphics.printf(script[currentLine], textCoords[1]+1, textCoords[2]+0, textWidth)
love.graphics.printf(script[currentLine], textCoords[1]+1, textCoords[2]+1, textWidth)
love.graphics.printf(script[currentLine], textCoords[1]+1, textCoords[2]-1, textWidth)
love.graphics.printf(script[currentLine], textCoords[1]-1, textCoords[2]+0, textWidth)
love.graphics.printf(script[currentLine], textCoords[1]-1, textCoords[2]+1, textWidth)
love.graphics.printf(script[currentLine], textCoords[1]-1, textCoords[2]-1, textWidth)
love.graphics.setColor(textColor)
