This is my first Java work. I wrote it basing on a ticker tape that i've seen on the C|Net web site. My provider (Energy!) liked it and asked me to write something like that, and i did it.
KzmScroll prints a moving message (from right to left) on the screen in a colored rectangle.

 

PARAMETER

Font (string, default="Arial")
The name of the font. Unfortunately this could be "dangerous" if you use a font that is not present in all system. So, be careful in use it.

FontSize (int, default=12)
The size of the font

FontBold (0|1, default=1)
If this parameter is 0 the font is plain, if it is 1 the font is bold.

Rectangle (X Y W H, default=size of applet)
The size of the scrollable area.

Shift (int, default=5)
This is the shifting of the message.

Delay (int, default=50)
The delay (in milliseconds) between every shift.

Rect_Color (R G B, default=0 0 0)
The color of the scrollable area (the rectangle).

Text_Color (R G B, default=255 255 255)
The color of the scrolling text.

Message (string, default=my name)
The text of the message to scroll.

Copyright (string)
This is a simple copyright line. Please, don't change it. The applet is free, so the only cost is to leave this copyright.
