     Command: Animate (E)
 
     Syntax:  E
 
     Summary: Animates the program with optional wait times between
              each instruction, beginning at the current address. Wait
              times are given by the Trace Speed command-window command
              or the Trace Speed command from the Options menu.
              See: Options Menu: Trace Speed Command
                   Trace Speed (T) Command-Window Command
 
     In the protected-mode version of CodeView (CVP), the Animate (E)
     command in Source mode runs the current thread in slow motion
     while other threads are also running (equivalent to the ~*E
     command). The Animate command in Assembly or Mixed mode does not
     allow other threads to run (equivalent to the ~.P command).
 
     See: Use with Thread Command (~)
 
     NOTE: The Animate command has the same command letter (E) as the
           Enter command. If the command has at least one argument,
           it is interpreted as Enter; if not, it is interpreted as
           Animate.
