This for win32, so you have to escape the double quotes on the inside:

perl -e "$|++; while (1) {print \"\b+\";sleep 1;print \"\b-\";sleep 1;}"

You'll probably find the use of "\" and "/" to make a spinner (at least under win32) a good way to wait for the paint to dry.... ;-}

Hi all,
in some aplicantions, we can see the cursor moving in

In the examples that I see, they have made in C/C++.
It is possible in perl?

Sorry my bad english.
Thanks in advance!
