    Thanks a lot Hammer, I changed it just a litte so that it would never stop(that is pretty much what he wanted)but I have a question for the guy who made that matrix program(or anyone that knows how i.e. Hammer )How do you make it so your letters don't simply appear, they appear like they are being typed almost, its kinda hard for me to explain but if you want go to the unregisterd guys homepage and dl his Matrix one and you will see what I mean.

    You simply write some out to the screen, pause for a small amount of time, then write more, and so on. Before you ask, sleeping as it's known, is normally done best using some form of sleep function that comes with your compiler... check in your documentation, or do a few web/board searches to learn more.
    When all else fails, read the instructions.
