I received via e-mail a dog walking animation from aaa lurker Robert Haschart, who has "been following the thread about a walking dog with some interest, largely because [he] recently completed an ascii animation of exactly that." He does not have a website on www nor is he able to post the creation in the newsgroup. So I have posted his animation for him at: http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Studios/9334/spot.htm Remember, you need to have Netscape Navigator 3.01 that has Javascript enabled in order to view it. (And I think that MSIE 4.0 also works.)

It's good smooth animation, but it appears to be the conventional "whole frame strings" method. -- ^-^-^-@@-^-;-^ http://www.xemu.demon.co.uk/ (..)__u news:alt.smoking.mooses
