Be careful — if you stop typing for long, there could be trouble brewing. It’s a terrorist attack of the software kind . . . explosions everywhere, blowing away your application and clearing the screen with the violent beauty of detonation after detonation. Whether they leave pitch black craters, smoke or no trace at all is your own decision to make from the safety of your console.

The first and fourth types of explosions are taken from Wing Commander Privateer. There are some additional frames included which were eventually cut from Privateer for space.
