I'm sorry if I caused you any discomfort, Greg. I hold you in high regard as
a respected member of this community. I never want to get anybody mad. I was
under the impression that you were a slave of the Windows OS, and
recommended AAPLAY. I think there are players for other OSes as well. For
Linux I've heard of xanim (someone help me if I'm wrong here). FLC is a
classic (old) format, and I have tons of files encoded with it, mine and
many by others. I like it because it uses 256 colors (small files) and I can
control the frame-rate of playback. I think that MPEG would compress the
**** out of this tiny image, and it would be best to leave it as is. I
assumed everyone here had some way of playing it or getting a player for it,
as, like I said, it's a classic format. Sorry. Have a nice day. =)

For UNIX in general and for LINUX.

QuickTime 4.0 worked fine for me, on Mac OS 8.6(I haven't upgraded to 
Mac OS 9 yet, I might wait for Mac OS X).

Sorry back. As I said, I hope I wasn't being too much of a brute. Huge tempest
over a tiny principle, I made.

Great. BTW, OS X looks and sounds very cool. (Move this to off-topic if you
want to keep talking about it. I have a link to an article.)

For those people who use older versions of MacOS, GraphicConverter can play
FLI/FLC files.

Ken and team, could someone please put a link to p.o.t on the page:
povray.org/groups.html

Thanks, I don't know how to get to it unless it's on that page.

Hi Greg! 

You use Netscape 4.04. Let's think. Either you have a button on the icon
row with the title join or under menu FILE->subscribe

Then a window should appear where the newserver is given. i have
news.povray.org right now otherwise you wouldn't be able to read it.
I have 4.61 yet so I have to guess from what's here available. You can
somehow look there for new groups. This is what you should do next. If
you start this povray.off-topic should be on the list. Then add it with
the standard procedure (at least here in 4.61) to your subscribed
newsgroups.

Hope this one helps.

And is always a good program to have. It is far more than just a 
converter program.
