Terminal Welcome Screen

Create a terminal-based welcome screen animation that displays greeting messages using text effects.

Requirements

Build a program that creates an animated welcome screen with the following components:

1. Static Header: Display a static title "WELCOME" at the top of the screen that remains visible throughout the animation.

2. Color-Cycling Status: Display a status message "System Ready" that automatically cycles through different colors.

3. Scrolling Banner: Display a scrolling message "Thank you for using our application!" that moves horizontally across the screen.

The program should:

• Initialize the screen and set up the animation scene
• Display all three text effects simultaneously
• Run the animation for at least 100 frames
• Clean up properly when finished

Test Cases

• The static header displays "WELCOME" at position (30, 5) in white color @test
• The color-cycling text displays "System Ready" at position (28, 10) and changes colors automatically @test
• The scrolling banner displays "Thank you for using our application!" and moves horizontally at position y=15 @test
• The animation runs for at least 100 frames without errors @test
