Save ANIMATED Ascii???

Hi group: does anyone know how to "save" Animated Ascii???? I cannot
"copy and paste" or "save as"- a right mouse click only gives a "paste"
option!

You guys are doing such fantastic work now and I'd love to keep some of
it just to look at once inawhile without having to go online.   Anne.

I dont know what kind of system you have.

Try:

1- highlighting the entire ascii animation then find "copy" under one of
the menu headings. That will copy it to memory. Open a text file and
click on "paste" in the same menu and it should appear in the text file.

2- instead of "copy" and "paste" in the menu, you could try ctrl-c to
copy and ctrl-v to paste (it works the same).

I've made some JavaScript addons for the animations, which can
be seen on:
http://huizen.dds.nl/~shimrod/asciiart/animation/fighting.html

The show button allows cutting and pasting of the whole 
animation, while the next and prev buttons allow selection
of a specific frame.

I suggest that other artists add these to their animations 
too. If anyone needs help with the adding, just mail me.

Greetz,

Nice, but for me the "show" button doesn't work... :(

here's what Netscape says about it:


JavaScript Error:
http://huizen.dds.nl/~shimrod/asciiart/animation/fighting.html, line
437:

tl is not defined.

It does doesn't it? I'd say that, when you add the pause button,
you would need to add the play button too. Or you could ofcourse
make one play/pause button. Here's an example source to do this 
(real simple too)

function playpause() {running=!running;tick;}

that should work. (didn't test though, but it's too simple not to work)

Oops, that should be:

function playpause() {running=!running;tick();}
