I really dislike the animated gif. Let me stare at what it says as long as I want/need to. Not allowing the user to move at their own pace is bad UX.

Well - there is a documentation site if you want to stare... the animated gif is for people who want a "drive-by" look at what it does.

It is both too fast and too slow. It's too fast to read it, and it's too slow for a drive-by look. Just put the document on the page like a normal person.

Thank you! Put that under the gif with all the output the gif shows and it's perfect.

I really liked it because it drew my attention when I might have skipped over a block of text.

However, I wanted to go back and see what was earlier or view the source input and output. So I would also like it if the contents of the gif was printed out below for easier access.
