FLAP is a command-line utility that takes one or more .FLI
animation files and appends them into a single new one.
Syntax:
FLAP input-filename[s] options
Options:

/Snnn (specify playing speed. Reasonable values are 0 through
120. Default is 0.)
Examples:

append part1.fli, part2.fli, and part3.fli... put the result
into a file called whole.fli

append part1.fli, part2.fli, and part3.fli... put the result
back into part1.fli
C>flap rocket.fli /s10
change the speed of rocket.fli to 10

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
