Dear Monks

I have the following code;
#!c:/perl/bin/perl.exe -w use strict; use vars qw/%data/; use Win32; use Win32::Console::ANSI; use Term::ANSIColor; $data{colors} = { 1 => 'bold blue', 2 => 'bold blink yellow', 3 => 'blink red', 4 => 'blink white', 5 => 'blink green', 6 => 'blink cyan', 7 => 'rapid blink magenta', 8 => 'blink grey', }; print "\n"; for (1..100) { print colored ("*",$data{colors}{(rand(100)%6)+1}); } print "\n";
The blink doesn't seem to work, not sure if this is how it should be coded, there were no examples in the module documentation on how to set the blinking.

Can a holy creature helps out with this please?

Thanks
Blackadder
