Hey, I'm in the predicament you are. I want to know how to create animations
but no one seems to know the specifics. I recently got a rather crude ascii
animation file (through the mail) that was passed along like a chain letter
from an unidentified source through a friend. I have tried mailing it to myself
and editing it in various ways but I don't really understand the fundamental
nature of how it works. Do you know how to create ANY of the control characters
that make of the bulk of these animations? The files seem to have backwards
question marks indicating a control character(i think) but i don't know if
they are all the same or if some are different than others. I would appreciate
anything you have to say on the subject and i can mail you the one i have if
you would like to see it.
