Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi, I have a program that process log files and while it's doing it's thing I would like to have sort of a hour glass or progress bar until the processing is done. Does anyone know how I could start looking into that?
Thank you very much!!!!!
This topic has been covered many times. There is actually a node named Progress Bar that start off with character based ones and then refers to a few graphical solutions (Tk::ProgressBar and some code examples). You'll find many more nodes by searching on the same keywords using Super Search.
