This is the core of animation. DELAY allows you to put
silent DELAYs in your pictures. The standard animation
technique is to MOVE a part of the picture a very small
distance, then select DELAY. 20 milliseconds is a typical
delay. Then move the area again, over and over again.
In addition to using MOVES with DELAY, you can use
FATBIT EDITING, lines and all the other drawing tools.
You can make things fade out, by slowly replacing them
with background color with WIPE or FATBIT EDITING. To
avoid clunky animations, use multiple small changes and
short delays. MOVE only small areas.
Generally, DELAY asks you to type a number,
representing milliseconds of DELAY time each time it is
selected. You can quicken the operation by designating a
standard delay time with the SET option. When a delay time
is designated, DELAY does not ask you to type a number.
