         ▌▌▌▌About the demo ···········································


         "Flower" is a 256 byte textmode MSDOS intro. It is a very
         simplified version of an effect that is part of the 
         Invititation (an invitation for the 2002 TMDC). If you
         haven't seen it I hightly recommended you do. Here's the
         link in Pouet:

         https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=8056

         The original is much more sophisticated and has several
         'stages' but I think this captures a bit of it's spirit in
         255 bytes.

         There is probably plenty of space for optimization. The code
         of the effect is 223 bytes so I filled the remaining bytes
         with the 'TMDCv' text as a tribute to the "Text Mode Demo
         Contest" which was a pseudo-anunual demo-making contest where
         only texmode demos are allowed. I love textmode demos and I
         recommend you visit the website:

         Head on to Pouet to see lots of great textdemos:

         I provide the sourcecode of this version and will do a
         longer writeup in my blog (https://cesarmiquel.github.io).
         Stay tuned!
