and so on.
It just goes realy fast on my computer. I tried in school and it works just fine.

Answer 1

your school computer is very slow, that's why it look animated.



your home computer is much faster, that's why it does not look animated.

Answer 2

Learn about "Quick Basic" as well. It was the first microsoft "visual basic". It's on MS-DOS and allows you to write "Batch" like programs. I have several lesson plans and multiple examples of how to write a .Bas file.

It's really cool! But that's my geek side talking. lol



*The only thing better than language is translation*

I think I've put it on the internet (Quick Basic). uhhh, I dunno, but if your interested in learning a forgotten language, email me. lol I'll hook u up.
