I'm new to the list, and I'm working on my first ascii animation, but
I'm having some trouble with it.

Can someone please help me (I'll send the code to you)?

Btw, why are there so many advertisers lurking around here, it's
swamped?

Thanks in advance for any replies,

Before you send the code to anyone, have you checked to see that you
have done all these things? (I'm assuming that you are making a
Javascript animation)

This is an excerpt from my Javascript ascii-animation lesson at

http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Studios/9334/animlesson.htm#top

Each line must begin with a " (quotation mark). Each line except the
last line of all
frames must end with \r\n"+ (backslash, lowercase r, backslash,
lowercase n, quotationmark, plus sign). The last line of each frame
except the last frame must end with a \r", (backslash, lowercase r,
quotation mark, comma).

The last line of the last frame must end with a \r" (backslash,
lowercase r, quotation mark) N.B. THERE IS NO COMMA AT THE END OF THE
LAST FRAME.

Another important thing, any \ (backslash) in your drawing must be
preceded by another \ (backslash) or you will have weird jumps in your
animation. The same goes for any " (quotation mark) in the drawing. And
apparently, for some people, you must do the same with any < and >
(lessthan and greaterthan). Precede each of them with a \ (backslash).

I hope that helps.


(The advertisers who stupidly inundate this group don't seem to realize
that there are very few people in this group to even *see* their
advertisements, because, of course, the advertisers are dumb as rocks.)



NOTE: I do not pick up my mail from the idirect address that you

to "freent"; its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.

Thank you for the plug, Colin!

If you tire of maneuvring your way through the maze of the ascii
library, and/or would like another sort of challenge, there is also a
program for making Ascii-animations that you can download from Celia's
site. http://members.xoom.com/albertopsq/ 

Look for ANA.zip.

Copy and paste the URL to the instructions for using ANA
http://members.xoom.com/albertopsq/ana.htm

into the translation program at altavista
http://babelfish.altavista.digital.com/cgi-bin/translate?

and choose "Spanish to English" to find out how to use the program.
