These animations were meant to be viewed on any VT terminal (VT100, VT102,
etc.).  If you have access to a UNIX account, copy the .vt.z file to your
shell, then zcat file.vt.z.  If zcat is not available, gzip -d or gunzip
file.vt.z then cat file.vt.  Make sure you're using VT emulation when
viewing these files.
