Any of you animation freaks checked this product out?  Sounds like Shareware

     On the web page it says it is for WIN95. I just downloaded it, and it
looks like it makes animated GIFs instead of Javascripting anything.

     No, I was wrong, it just makes a text file that you have to press page
down and up with.

No. maybe I didn't make it quite clear. First of all the editor is freeware, 
not shareware, and as seen as an andedote to all the tricky resizing of windows 
that would normally happen with a text file ascii animation. You know the ones, 
'frames' stored one below another like a long film strip.  The editor itself,is 
pretty much a crude notepad style text editor. (but that's what I normally use 
for ascii art anyway). However, the ascii art editor allows to you to add and 
edit, insert frames, so the ascii images can be 'animated'. The editor stores 
the files as text, as normal. The animation can be viewed easyily with the 
built in play-back feature. No need for page up and down.

Thanks to all the people who have checked it out and given it a whirl.
