With a GUI you could make a nice Table display, and upgrade progress thru the Table. Here is a simple example to show you what it might look like.

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Tk;
use Tk::TableMatrix;

my $top = MainWindow->new;

my $stuff = {};

my $tg = $top->Scrolled(
    'TableMatrix', 
    -rows => 21, 
    -cols => 11, 
    -width => 10, 
    -height => 20,
    -titlerows => 1, 
    -titlecols => 1,
    -variable => $stuff,
    -selectmode => 'extended',
    -resizeborders => 'both',
    -titlerows => 1,
    -titlecols => 1,
    -bg => 'white',
)->pack(
    -expand => 1,
    -fill=>'both'
);

$tg->tagConfigure('active', -bg => 'gray90', -relief => 'sunken')     
+               ;
$tg->tagConfigure('title', -bg => 'gray85', -fg => 'black', -relief =>
+ 'sunken')    ;

$top->Button(
    -text=>'modify', 
    -command=> sub {
        
        $stuff->{'3,3'} = 'asfasf';
        #&TMRefresh($tg);
            $tg->configure(-padx =>( $tg->cget(-padx)));
    },
)->pack;

Tk::MainLoop;


sub TMRefresh {
    #Required input TableMatrix object.
    #use to force matrix to update, a code trick
    return if (!$_[0]);
    $_[0]->configure(-padx =>($_[0]->cget(-padx)));
}
