I'll admit they're cute :)
Great story though; I'll have to remember that as an easy way to impress
people.

Hey, thank's for the answers !
Although, I didn't ask the question but I was occasionally thinking
about it. "\r" and "\b" - great !
As once I was pointed to the ASCII character causing the printer to

Hi Matt
The \r option works fine, but an alternative is to use 'print "\b"' - this
will print a backspace character, and means you can have other stuff on the
line too. Try:
$|=1; for ($i=0; $i<10; $i++) {print "$i\b";sleep 1}
This method only works for single digit numbers though, since

I'm trying something like:
for ($i=0; $i<10; $i++){print $i;}
and have the numbers iterate in ONE PLACE at the cursor (i.e. print, then backspace,
print the new number, etc). I'm having problems figuring this out. Any ideas?
Thanks
Matt
