GScroll - A program which scrolls a text in a window

Introduction
------------

I've written this program as I got a CD with many colour fonts and IFF Fonts
on it and thought one some so calles "Intros" which are mostly written in
Assembler and not very system friendly.

This program uses only system functions (for scrolling, blitting and remapping.)
In the current form, remapping is only done under OS3.x and higher.
The program should also work on OS2.x but I could not test this.

One example font is included and also an example usage with topaz/11. This
only works, if you have installed the Font Datatype (can be found on aminet).

I cannot make clear statements on the speed of the program. On my A4000/040
it is quite a smooth scrolling. At least it should not flicker somehow.
Also the speed much depends on the size of the font. While topaz/11 is so fast
that you cannot read it, with the font14 color font it is acceptable.
