Yes, but she will only get one frame, I got the impression she wanted to
copy the whole animations (just simply "save as" in Netscape will do
that).

I get the impression that is what she is trying to do... :)

What you do is to remove some extra characters at the beginning and end
of every line, then replace all backslash followed by double quotes  
\"   with just the one double quote character   "   and then replace all
double backslashes   \\   with just one backslash   \

This sounds like it is very complicated, even for a programmer like me,
and certainly way over the head of somebody who has trouble with
saving... (but I haven't tried it, maybe it is really good. Maybe you
should make a "stepping" version where you can step one frame at a time,
or maybe that is what your "pause" button does?)
