Aosora code that makes the above (note the commented section which can be uncommented to get the second result):

talk OnTest

}

function style(type, word, wait, strokewait, newwait)
{
	if (type.IsNull()) return;
	if (word.IsNull()) return;
	
	local pause = "\_w[2000]";
	if (!wait.IsNull()) pause = "\_w[{wait}]";
	
	local strokepause = "\_w[100]";

	local newpause = "\_w[500]";
	if (!newwait.IsNull()) newpause = "\_w[{newwait}]";
	
	local len = word.length;
	local erase = "\c[char,{len}]";
	
	local output = "";
	
	output += word;
	output += "\![quicksection,1]";
	output += pause;
	
	for (local i = 0; i < len; i++)
	{
		output += erase;
		//if (i == 0) output += " "; //Uncomment to get the small gaps version
		output += "\f[{type},1]";
		output += word.Substring(0,i + 1);

Alternate version of the tester script with \n tags, which get erased when they shouldn't:

talk OnTest
{
	\f[name,MS Gothic]We should get {style("strike","pizza for dinner")}\n{style("strike","hotdogs for dinner")}\n{style("underline","chicken for dinner.")}
}
