The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Term::Twiddle
DSLIP: RdpOp
description: twiddles baton while-u-wait for long subrout
userid: SCOTTW (Scott Wiersdorf)
chapterid: 8 (User_Interfaces)
communities:
similar:
Term::ProgressBar
rationale:
Like Term::ProgressBar, Term::Twiddle is purely for watching
something while something else happens. Term::Twiddle provides a
configurable baton (like FreeBSD's boot loader) to watch. You can
change the baton into just about anything you can animate with ascii
characters in a sequence (e.g., an arrow, bouncing ball, blinking
eyes, etc.). There isn't anything else in the Term (or in CPAN
afaik) that does this.
