No, I only managed to write some kind of Java animation player that is capable of reading and playing most of the animations. This is a hidden feature contained in JavE 5.0 that can be started from the command line: java -cp jave5.jar de.jave.jave.VIViewer g:/VT100/bambi.vt I wanted to make the frame rate configurable (more precisely the timing strategy - some animations contain frames, others just work by modifying single charachters and require different timings), add color support and include a vt100 to JMOV animation converter, but then I ran out of time... Maybe I will finish this this thing one day... There are some manuals around on the web containing descriptions of the character codes used for certain functions (google for "vt100 terminal" - lower numbers like vt52 or so will also do). However I did not find a really good one and found out some of the secrets rather by trying to make the animations work than by looking at the descriptions. > Will mirror your VT collection... thanks. That's all right. I think you have some animations I did not yet see. I will look at them later.
