The method which issue 965 references from Silas Brown does a
continuous horizontal scroll.  I tried it out last year and it
produces OK results (following a few code fixes).  Like James says
though, you have to produce a timing file by pressing a key whenever a
new system appears; it then uses this info to create loads of shifted
images which it stitches together.
