Meh, fat fingered the previous and saved too early. Anyway...

For those in the know, there's a guy called Simon Jansen who created an
ASCII version of Star Wars Episode IV. Well, part of it anyway.

With a little inspiration, I have taken the text file and written a player for Synchronet.

I'd be interested to know how it works for everyone using different terminal types. I've tested it in SyncTerm and it seems to be fine.

Please give it a try, login to endofthelinebbs.com with your username/pw or as a guest, or feel free to create an account. Head to the Doors section then go to Fun Stuff. You'll see ASCIIMation Star Wars.

+ and - should speed up/slow down the animation and Q will quick back to the menu.
