Well, the animations I'm doing are pretty simple and don't contain
frame-to-frame dependencies. So, I'm just a newbie on that...

No, I want a GUI that'll let me control a farm from one place w/o scripting,
and regardless of platform. Using Java/RMI this would be pretty easy - at
least for the kinds of anims I want to do.

It sounds like what I want isn't out there, so I guess I'll finish the
design and knock some code together. I'll post something here if/when I get
something that others might want to examine.

Thanks,
