These are VT100 Animation files, which are meant to be thrown up raw at a
vt100-compatible terminal. ANSI-ready terminals should do fine, although the
ideal venue is a Digital Equipment Corporation VT100 Terminal connected at 9600
baud. Many of these animations will fly by at modern speeds, when they were
meant to move much slower. The files themselves are simply text with cursor
movement instructions, deleting and erasing the characters necessary to appear
animated. Usually, they represent a long hand-crafted process done by a single
person to tell a story. Some of these files may date back to the 1960's and
1970's.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
