DIS continuous animations

     To the person who wanted to repeat several frames over and over
again in an ascii animation:  If you are on unix, I suggest the
following:
1.  create the animation that produces just one repetition (I'll refer
to it as jug.vt here).
2.  Create a file called jug.exe which contains the following:
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
cat jug.vt
   do this as many times as you like.  Save the file.
3.  chmod u+x jug.exe
4.  jug.exe
The last three steps create a script file which executes whatever
commands are in it.  You could also have it contain:
cat jug.vt
jug.exe
     This would recursively continue forever (theoretically), but
would actually create problems with your system (too many processess)
or the job would get terminated by the system software if your
administrators have done a good job.  I don't reccommend this one.
     In DOS you would create a batch file.  I have no recommendations
for other systems.

Here's a simple unix shell script for repeating an animation.

#!/bin/sh
while :
do	dd bs=1 $@
done
