Star Wars scroller

Has the "Star Wars" text scroller already been implemented in CG?

I'm asking because I did a very thorough analysis of it some time ago and actually managed to write a simple program (less than 200 lines of code, plus some of my custom code libraries) to reproduce the exact behavior. This should make the implementation in CG very easy.

And NO, I'm not talking about the stupid text scroller in KEENGINE.

Edit: Oops. The first upload was missing the scroller.txt file :o

Hi King, thanks for the contribution. I will put your snippet into the CG after of course testing it and when I get more time on my hands.

Right now I am looking for a job, so this keeps me a bit busy lately. When everything in that regard is clear an update will be on the way.
