I have two things I need this for, these should explain what I mean:
- To have a ‘shell popup’ of sorts, like
mandoes, that can be removed when done - To have a blinking ellipsis (…) for visual effect
Is there any standard Python way to do this? Could I ‘unprint’ the last line and reprint it?
Look at curses module.
