ProgressBar

I was working on a script to sync hundreds of thousands of records between two databases, and wanted a simple way to keep track of progress. I couldn't find one that was easy to use and did what I wanted, so I wrote my own. Not much more introduction needed, how about a simple example?

$ cat examples/simple.rb

require 'progres_bar'
bar = ProgressBar.new

100.times do
  sleep 0.1
  bar.increment!
end

$ ruby examples/simple.rb
