The first thing, i think you mean like this "
Couple of quick questions
".
that is a link to this thread, anyway you write the name of the thing, then you hold you mouse at the start of the first word, you click + hold down the button while dragging it to the end of the last word. then you click on the little "Earth" picture with a chain acroos it, right above the input field, among the Bold, Italic, Underline- buttons.
for your second question.
An addon like Recount (there are many different dps meters) takes the damage from your Combat Log, adds it up and divides it by the time of the encounter.
Edit: first of all FU Peekatyou =P anyway those 1shot dps readings are'nt really accurate because of some way the game handles combat. I dont think that it is accurate to go by the time you char is "In-Combat" but something along those lines.

DPS takes into account the time it took to cast your spell. It also takes into account your swing timer.
For example, your melee swing is 3 seconds. You hit a rat for 3,000,000. Your DPS is 1,000,000.

this is just silly. Effectively, yeah, dps meters do that, but not directly.
The way recount works is from the time you start dealing damage in combat until combat ends is the length of time, then it divides your total damage done by the number of seconds it took you to do it.
If you one shot a 12k HP mob it doesn't count you as doing 12k dps because #1, it has trouble being accurate on really short fights and #2, you were in combat longer than 1 second.
