When I have a perl script chugging away at a large amount of data, I'd like more visual feedback than a blinking hdd light.
I've tried to make a simple progress indicator that just adds a dot while it's working:
..................................
but it doesn't seem to actually get sent to stdout until I send "\n". Is there a way around this?
Relevant system info:
running perl in a dos window
