Label inside a scroll view.

	// Simple Editor Window that creates a scroll view with a Label inside
	
	class BeginEndScrollView extends EditorWindow {
	
		var scrollPos : Vector2;
		var t : String = "This is a string inside a Scroll view!";
	
		@MenuItem("Examples/Write text on ScrollView")
		static function Init() {
			var window = GetWindow(BeginEndScrollView);
			window.Show();
		}
	
		function OnGUI() {
			EditorGUILayout.BeginHorizontal();
				scrollPos = 
				EditorGUILayout.BeginScrollView(scrollPos, GUILayout.Width (100), GUILayout.Height (100));
					GUILayout.Label(t);
				EditorGUILayout.EndScrollView();
				if(GUILayout.Button("Add More Text", GUILayout.Width (100), GUILayout.Height (100)))
					t += " \nAnd this is more text!";
			EditorGUILayout.EndHorizontal();
			if(GUILayout.Button("Clear"))
				t = "";
