I have a dead simple progress "bar" using something like the following:
import sys
from time import sleep
current = 0
limit = 50
while current <= limit:
sys.stdout.write('\rSynced %s/%s orders' % (current, limit))
current_order += 1
sleep(1)
Works fine, except over ssh with Putty. Putty only updates every 3 minutes or if a line ends with \n. Is this a Putty setting, sshd_config, or can I code around it?
