Turning off on-screen display messages when using hotkeys

I'm sorry if this is already answered elsewhere, but I didn't find anything about it when I looked, so here goes:

Is there a way to turn off the on-screen messages that appear when you turn some function on or off using a hotkey in the emulator? I find it distracting when you for instance need to use the turbo function frequently and an on-screen "enable" message displays everytime you use the hotkey.

I use Snes9x 1.53 x64, by the way.

Not sure how to turn off the Turbo message, but you can turn off the FPS counter by going to Video > Show Frame Rate.

You can edit snes9x.conf and set MessageDisplayTime to 0.

Thanks OV2. Perhaps we should add a "hide all status messages from the screen" option in 1.54. :)

I got home from work and made the suggested change just now. No more on-screen notifications! Much appreciated, Camo_Yoshi and OV2!

The thanks goes to OV2, I didn't really do much, haha.

Enjoy and let us know if you have any more issues. :)
