Any ideas how to make a scrolling text box. So when the text box reaches a certain amount of characters it will scroll to the left.

That doesn't have the stuff I am looking for. I don't want to scroll the page, I want to scroll the text box like Windows text boxes do

Then you have to make your own function, just base it on how the textutils functions are structured.
