Hi Stéphane,

Drawing is done using the <canvas/> tag in Safari and Firefox. For  
IE, <canvas/> is emulated using VML.

We implemented the logo interpreter in the browser, using Javascript.  
The tricky part is slowing down the drawing so that you can see the  
logo program execute. Javascript has no sleep(), so we used  
window.setTimeout().
