Animation
From Rosetta Code
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Create a window containing the string "Hello World! " (the trailing space is significant). Make the text appear to be rotating right by periodically removing one letter from the end of the string and attaching it to the front. When the user clicks on the text, it should reverse its direction.
[edit] ActionScript
//create the text box
var textBox:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(textBox);
var text = "Hello, World! ";
var goingRight = true;
//modify the string and update it in the text box
function animate(e:Event)
{
if(goingRight)
text = text.slice(text.length-1,text.length) + text.slice(0, text.length - 1);
else
text = text.slice(1) + text.slice(0,1);
textBox.text = text;
}
//event handler to perform the animation
textBox.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, animate);
//event handler to register clicks
textBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, function(){goingRight = !goingRight;});

Library: gWidgets
The basic principle is:create a window with a label in it, then add a handler to the label for rotating the string, and another for changing direction on a click. Use of the tag function allows you to store the text flow direction as an attribute of the label.
rotate_string <- function(x, forwards)
{
nchx <- nchar(x)
if(forwards)
{
paste(substr(x, nchx, nchx), substr(x, 1, nchx - 1), sep = "")

paste(substr(x, 2, nchx), substr(x, 1, 1), sep = "")
}

[edit] SVG (no scripts)
Works with: Batik version 1.7
This animation is defined as a smooth movement rather than by moving whole characters, because that is more natural in SVG (without scripting); by characters would require 13 different text elements displayed in sequence.
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="100" height="30">
<g id="all">
<rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="yellow"/>
<g style="font: 18 'Times New Roman', serif;
fill: black;
stroke: white; stroke-width: 0.001; /* workaround for Batik oddity */ ">
<text x="0" y="20" textLength="95">Hello World!</text>
<text x="-100" y="20" textLength="95">Hello World!</text>
<animateMotion restart="whenNotActive" repeatCount="indefinite" dur="2s"
begin="0s;all.click" end="all.click"
from="0,0" by="100,0"/>
<animateMotion restart="whenNotActive" repeatCount="indefinite" dur="2s"
begin="all.click" end="all.click"
from="100,0" by="-100,0"/>
</g>
</g>
</svg>
(Does not work in Safari 4.0.2 because it apparently does not implement toggled animations correctly (see spec). Dreadful workaround: set the two animations to id="a" begin="0s;all.click" end="all.mousedown" and begin="a.end" end="all.click", respectively.)
[edit] Tcl
Library: Tk
package require Tk
set s "Hello World! "
set dir 0
# Periodic animation callback
proc animate {} {
global dir s
if {$dir} {
set s [string range $s 1 end][string index $s 0]
} else {
set s [string index $s end][string range $s 0 end-1]
}
# We will run this code ~8 times a second (== 125ms delay)
after 125 animate
}
# Make the label (constant width font looks better)
pack [label .l -textvariable s -font {Courier 14}]
# Make a mouse click reverse the direction
bind .l <Button-1> {set dir [expr {!$dir}]}
# Start the animation

[edit] TI-89 BASIC
The requirements contain "When the user clicks on the text…". The TI-89 does not have a graphical cursor, so just for the sake of overdoing it, and to have a little more complex animation (overlapping objects), this program implements one. Use the arrow keys and ENTER to control the cursor.
