That doesn't work on my WinXP, but this does...

Its because you used double quotes instead of single quotes to surround the expression and need to escape the internal ones :)


Try this (paste it exactly as is ;p)
 perl -e '$|=1; print "\rLine $_" and sleep 1 for 1..3; print "\n"'

I bet it will work :)
