Hello all,
I am on a windows box and I am trying to have a count down timer print
out the seconds remaining without new lining it. i.e. I do not want a
screen that looks like this...
19 seconds remaining
18 seconds remaining
17 ...
I would like it to print all on the same line. And I cannot clear the
screen after every second because there is other information on there I
would like to keep.
A google search has only netted me "perl one liners"
I have also tried \r (carriage return) hoping it wouldn't give me the
new line, but it did not. I did see where activeState perl has trouble
with some escape sequences though.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Eric
