A little utility to display vertically scrolling text. A rework of skin ideas written about 10 yrs.ago
Now that Font Size are not limited to integer values, I was able to replace TransformationMatrix formulas to control scale with simple font multipliers which improved my original concept.
Four example skins are included in the rmskin package to demonstrate most of the features:
Scroll_Text ~ Plain text
Scroll_Overlay ~ iPad overlay image
Scroll_Underlay ~ Scroll paper underlay image (partial animation)
Scroll_Star_Wars ~ Fading text with Underlay image (partial animation and sound)

Gplay is a minimalist console multimedia player using Microsoft's DirectShow, included in the UnxUtils collection. Usage is gplay.exe FILENAME | URL from a command-line interpreter or the Microsoft Windows run prompt. The program was developed by Dr. Karl M. Syring and should be able to play any video or audio file that is supported by the underlying operating system.

Re: Scroll Credits
Not something I have use for, but I thought I'd take a look anyway. The star wars inspired scrolling is very impressive!

Re: Scroll Credits
Thanks! Yes, nothing earth-shattering, but I thought some people may find them useful.
