It's true; animated ASCII is indeed lunacy!!! But

It's the best kind of lunacy.

Yes, you've come to the right place. Rumor has it that ASCII-animation
has been going on for some time. There is the VT kind (page down
variety), Java and Javascript. 

There seems to be a problem with my site right now but eventually you
will be able to get to
http://www.crosswinds.net/~llizard/animations.htm#otheranimators

In the meantime, try http://www.stud.uni-hannover.de/~freise/ascii/anim/



NOTE: I rarely pick up my mail from the idirect address. If you

its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.

It's not that hard to fudge it... Here's an example, if you can set
your newsreader height, set it so the following two lines just fit on
the screen, one at the top and one at the bottom:
------------










-----------

Then, put the line below this at the top of the screen, and then just
keep hitting page down.

-----------





  ***




-----------





 * * *

   * 
     *

OK, so that's pretty cheesy, but you get the point.

(Note, if you can't change the height of your reader, copy this text
into Notepad.

Sweeping generalizations always have exceptions, even this one.

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

Well, there are a couple of Java Applet builders that would let you
annimate ASCII art. The Applets are made by Coffee Cup Software 
(www.coffeecup.com) and can be downloaded from:

http://download.tucows.com/partners/coffeecup/

The first one is called "Applet Marquee Wizard" (3.5 ver at ths time).
This one is a little bit more envolving because you have to make
each "frame" of annimation a different marquee that will be played.

The second one is "Applet Headline Factory" (4.0 ver right now).
This is a bit easier, because you can create a text file contains
a "flip book/page down" annimation affect, and then have the
headline applet load that text file.

I have used both of these and they are simple to grasp.  They are also
not that big on downloads (headline is like 700k, marquee is like
1.15mb).
