$ES_PASSWORD limits input length to control width, Add note about using $ES_AUTOHSCROLL to Help File

Description

When setting an input box with the $ES_PASSWORD style, it no longer accepts characters after it has exceeded the width of the box.
You need to use $ES_AUTOHSCROLL + $ES_PASSWORD to allow a long password to be used.

Would be great if in the help file for GUICtrlCreateInput where it says to use that for passwords, it would actually say to use both styles

Instead of the current: For defining an input control for entering passwords (input is hidden with an asterisk) use the $ES_PASSWORD style.

Should be: For defining an input control for entering passwords (input is hidden with an asterisk) use the $ES_AUTOHSCROLL + $ES_PASSWORD styles.
