Ok, so this should be a really simple thing to do, but I haven't been able to get it on the first few tries and couldn't find anything after searching a bit.
what i want to do is print a 'waiting' statement while a script is working-- the multithreading aspect isn't an issue, the printing on the same line is. i want to print something like: (1sec) working... (2sec) working.... (3sec) working..... where the 'working' line isn't being printed each second, but the dots are being added with time. something like: import time s = '.' print 'working' while True: print s time.sleep(1) however, this doesn't work since it prints: working . . . any suggestions? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
