This is typically used +to display the progress of a long running operation, providing a visual +clue that processing is underway. + +The ProgressBar class manages the progress, and the format of the line +is given by a number of widgets. A widget is an object that may display +diferently depending on the state of the progress. There are three types +of widget: - a string, which always shows itself; - a ProgressBarWidget, +which may return a diferent value every time it's update method is called; +and - a ProgressBarWidgetHFill, which is like ProgressBarWidget, except +it expands to fill the remaining width of the line. + +The progressbar module is very easy to use, yet very powerful. And +automatically supports features like auto-resizing when available. -- cgit v1.2.3
