ANSI or VT-100 animations work by using the cursor relocation code which is ^[[line;colH, where the ^[ is ASCII 27. Instead of laboriously coding long animations by hand, you can use a nice ANSI editor like THEDraw to do it for you. It works well for viewing them too, as it will slow them down if necessary. Try searching the net or getting an account with BBS.MUSTANG.COM via telnet and downloading it there.
