Question

I am using Ruby.

I have a string with multiple lines. I want to print that multiple-lines-string in the same place multiple times.

The reason I want to do that is because the string represents information that is going to be updated several times.

How can I accomplish this?

As an option:

3.times do |i|
  print str = "string#{i}\nstring#{i}\nstring#{i}\n"
  sleep 1 # just for test
  system('clear')
end
