Description
Result looks like marquee tag on the html page, scrolling text. Some animation on the INSTFILES page during long installs may be useful (but this is applicable to other pages as well, for example as a help text near some controls), attached plug-in is one of possible ways. Text length to be displayed may be big enough, limited by NSIS 'stringsize' parameter, 1024 and 8096 bytes for common and special NSIS builds. 18 parameters define text, border, font and scroll. The only big limitation I see now - horizontal scroll only (both directions).
