vestale.pl ascii animation

Hello all,

I am looking for an ascii animation that was posted here around 94/95,
it was in the form of a simple VT file and of a self compressed 3 or 4
pages perl program.
The title of the animation was "vestale sous contraintes, exercice
ludique en courier 10", and the name of the perl program "vestale.pl".
I am the author of it and somehow I lost the files in the mess of my
disks !!!

If someone still has it, I would really be greatful if they could
forward it to me.
Thanks in advance.
ala...@hotmail.com

Trying again ...

Alain, like you, I did a search in Google archives

http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search?q=&hl=en&lr=&safe=off

and used the keywords "ascii animation vestale". As you know, there is
a thread dated sometime in 1996 entitled "vestale.vt.z, part 1/1"  It
looks like the file was in the uuencoded part that has been deleted. 
However, perhaps you can find something or someone from those messages
to retrieve the actual file. Sadly, 1995 is considered to be eons ago
in computer terms. Sorry to hear that you lost the file. I feel your
pain. (Somewhere in the cybersmoke that was created a couple of years
ago when our computer harddrive suddenly and inexplicably packed in,
there was a newly created (foolishly unbacked up) javascript
ascii-animation of skiers climbing a hill and skiing downhill - I
never had the heart to recreate it.) 

obascii-art: when I saw this, it reminded me of the catch phrase "Save
Early; Save Often"
