   From: *@eli.users.panix.com   
      
   In alt.ascii-art.animation,   
      
   BTW, alt.ascii-art is a better place for this content, since it does not   
   animate and gets more traffic. I've crossposted there.   
      
   If you do want animation, and have a C compiler, look here:   
      
   https://github.com/Eli-the-Bearded/vt100-slowcat   
      
   I'll gladly take additional animations if you have them.
