Shit, and here I've spent allmost 5 minutes writing the ultimate c-program to fix this, and then there already exists such a thing.

Dessutom var det en *tjeeej* som kom p� det.   :-)  


/Skalle
ps:
the c-program follows:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

main(argc, argv)
int argc;
char** argv;
{
   char buf[255];
   int nr;

   while(nr = read(0, buf,255)) 
   {
      usleep(atoi(argv[1])*1000);
      write(1,buf,nr);
   }
}


compile: cc <file.c>
to run it:

cat <anim.vt> | slowdown <slowdown factor>

where slowdown factor (in an xterm in OpenWin on a SunELC) is a number usually between 20-100.

have fun.
