Oh the memories!!!

Takes me back to my days as a night operator using 9" reels (18 for a
partial backup)

To kill the time I created a file using escape codes that would clear
the screen then build a Christmas tree with blinking lights and a star
at the top; then it would start snowing.
It took me a couple of nights to put it all together then I moved on.  I
later returned as the Sys-admin for this company and was disappointed
when I couldn't find a copy of the file on any old backup tapes  :(
