Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp/issues/4777

It's a minor cosmetic annoyance, could confuse some people making them think input doesn't work in some cases etc.. described the problem in here http://forums.ppsspp.org/showthread.php?tid=3252&pid=61772#pid61772 (with screenshot),
Basically because the input line is centered it cuts off the start and end of the input when it's over 38~39 characters long, few games does allow that for descriptions mostly(used for multiplayer in many games), possibly for some other things, maybe even passwords as seen in http://forums.ppsspp.org/showthread.php?tid=1680&pid=61650#pid61650 No clue what max input could be. @_@

Solution ~ either detect the max lenght and divide it to more lines, or allow some kind of scrolling depending where the cursor is(keeping the input place not whole line centered), making it smaller or at least starting the input from the left instead of centering it, as currently it cuts off start and the end when it's too long.

You could remember you have issue opened covering pretty same thing in more general way when saying we should open an issue about it:P. Now this looks like a duplicate, unsure if I should leave it as it concentrates only on the minor issue or close it as it was already covered in yours.

I'm going to close this as a duplicate of #3087.

Making it multiple lines wouldn't really be hard. I personally don't really like the way the PSP's looks.
