Hi All;

how to create a text progress status line that updates on the same line in Perl?

I know that this questions is probably not well-posed, but I hope you
get what I'm after.

I'd like to do what application installers do, describing the status,
updating the status occasionally, but on the same line overwriting
what was there earlier.

Do I need to use the hex or oct form of the backspace (octal 010) for
each character that I want to overwrite?

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott
