    not that you asked for it, but here is some VT animation I wrote
    including a bicycle riding across the top of the screen.  This is a .com
    file, so do not 'type' it to see it.  Name the file bike.com, then to fire
    it up type @bike.  Hope you like it.  I have it set up to run just by typing
    'b' from the command prompt.  Its great fun to punch it up while someone is
    staring at my screen trying to figure something out.  Enjoy!

$   DISPLAY := WRITE SYS$OUTPUT
$   ESC[0,8] = %X1B
$   CSI = ESC + "["
$     HOME   = CSI + "1;1H"
$     ESCAPE[0,7] = 27
$   logo = ">>> Anything worth doing is worth doing to excess..... >-----------"
$ p1 = 0        
$  top_of_loop:
$ p1 = p1 + 1
$ logo_bit = f$extract( 67 - 'p1', 67 ,logo) + " _=|<,_"
$   DISPLAY CSI + "1;''p1'H " , "    __o "
$   DISPLAY CSI + "2;0H " , logo_bit
$   DISPLAY CSI + "3;''p1'H " , " (+)|o(+)"
$ p1 = p1 + 1
$ logo_bit = f$extract( 67 - 'p1', 67 ,logo) + " _=\<,_"
