    T = It *effect ("Speed")("Slider") - effect ("Start After")("Slider")*effect ("Speed")("Slider");
    F = math.round (It % 1);

    This is how you make it disappear in the end

    L = text.sourceText.length;
    It = time -thisLayer.inPoint;

    T = It *effect("Speed")("Slider") - effect ("Start After")("Slider")*effect ("Speed")("Slider");
    F = Math.round (It % 1);
    if (F == 1 | (T==0) ) {Fl= "|";}else {Fl="";}
    if (T>L) Fl = "";
    substr (0,T)+ Fl
