Progress Bar for Event Loop
This MR adds a (optinal but enabled-by-default) progress bar to the event loop:
It is mainly plain ASCII but uses some Unicode characters (partial blocks) to achieve a smoother movement of the bar head. Not sure how that works with all sorts of terminals though - @kwolters any idea?
I added a framework parameter progress_bar
which defaults to true
but allows to disable the new bar and revert to the old situation. This MR fixes #22 (closed) just 3 years and 3 months after its listing.
