Re: Turtle Forward Question

[Kathryn Boyle <boyle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If the infront code doesn't work for you, you might try this.  Have 2  
turtles with the doghouse shape, one that is a lower number than the  
dog and one that is a higher number.  Play around with HT (hideturtle)  
and ST (showturtle).  You should be able to come up with when to have  
which turtle showing at the moment in the animation.

Keep playing!
