Instructions to view animations

	The size of my mailbox seems to indicate to me that I forgot to 
include instructions for how to view these animations.  I used the unix 
'compress' command to compress each of these animations, because they 
take up, on avarage, about a tenth of the space that way.  To uncompress 
them, use the command 'uncompress'.  There is, however, a way to view 
them in the compressed format, and that is by using 'zcat' instead of 
'cat'.  The advantage of this is that you can leave them compressed on 
your system.  If you need to slow them down, type:

	zcat <filename> | cat -u

where <filename> is the name of the animation, such as 'bambi.vt.Z'  The 
'.Z' indicates that the file has been compressed using the 'compress' 
command.  Obviously, the posted files need to be uudecoded before any of 
this.  To do this, type:

	uudecode <filename>

where <filename> is the name that you gave the post when you saved it.  
Some newsreaders, such as tin, allow you to uudecode a post automaticly 
when you save it.  

Sorry about the confusion.
