Next the Python terminal window is written to for the 5 seconds of delay; see code. And finally the Title Bar is restored to normal...</p> <p>A snapshot image can be seen here:-</p> <p><a href="http://wisecracker.host22.com/public/Title_Bar.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://wisecracker.host22.com/public/Title_Bar.jpg</a></p> <p>Bazza...</p>

It might need the colours adjusting for some terminals but I am sure that is not beyond the average coder...</p> <p>Written so that anyone can see how it works.</p> <p>To hide the cursor the command "tput" is assumed to be available, if not, try "setterm -cursor off" and "setterm -cursor on" instead...</p> <p>Enjoy...</p> <p>Bazza, G0LCU...</p>

Revision 2. </p> <p>It's a simple function to print a progress bar under cli. When you call the function you have to indicate the max level that indicates 100% and what has been done considering the max level.</p>
