public class Animation
extends javax.swing.JLabel

A class used to implement a browser like animation that only runs during calculation. After much experimenting with Java's Thread Priority support, and much failure, we've abandoned that approach. Instead, this object offers a next() method which allows callers to explicitly show the next image. This way a single Thread can control it's own process as well as the animation. After instantiating, a call to the Animation's next() method should be placed somewhere in the main calculation loop.
