I guess they're these are using a simple file with a fixed number of
lines per screen "image". The escape codes are then created by the
software (during display of the animation). In theory, that could
even mean to just scroll out the old stuff (if run on a `dumb'
terminal).

the second :
Searching for ASCII art on a Debian system, there
are a good number of
programs mentioned. Just to name some promising:
aa3d - ASCII art stereogram generator
aewan - ASCII-art Editor Without A Name
cadubi - Creative ASCII Drawing Utility By Ian
boxes - Textmode box- and comment drawing filter
libaa1 - ascii art library
libaa-bin - sample programs using aalib
libcaca0 - colour ASCII art library
This looks like a good start, thanks. It looks like existing stuff
assumes that everything uses the standard ANSI codes and doesn't store
the meta-instructions, but the escape code rendering of those
instructions.
