I'm afraid I'm one of those irritating people whose first computer was a pentium running Windows95. I uudecoded, unzipped and made the terrifying trek into the dark screened white lettered Dos. The only command that didn't indicate "bad command" was the "type" command and a big mess of incomprehensible letters appeared that couldn't possibly in any way be what the originator of the fireworks intended to be seen. Too bad. I guess I'll stick with the Javascript version. NOTE: If you hit the reply button, add an "e" to the "freent"; its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers. -- ha llizard aka ejm cq547@freenet.toronto.on.ca ^^^^%--- ha www.geocities.com/SoHo/Studios/9334/ " \ ha ASCII-art and Javascript ASCII-animations
