NAME
statusbar, statusmsg - display a bar graph or status message window
SYNOPSIS
aux/statusbar [ -kt ] [ -w minx,miny,maxx,maxy ] title
aux/statusmsg [ -kt ] [ -w minx,miny,maxx,maxy ] [ title ]
DESCRIPTION
Statusbar and statusmsg read textual status lines from standard input
into a continuously updated bar graph or text message displayed in a
new window on the screen. The title is displayed on a line above the
bar graph or message. For statusbar, each input line is two space-sep‐
arated decimal numbers: the numerator and denominator of a fraction.
The programs exit when it reaches end-of-file on standard input. Typ‐
ing DEL or control-C will also cause it to exit.
The options are:
-k do not allow typing to cause exit
-t print an ASCII version of the bar or message to standard output,
using backspace to redraw it.
-w set the coordinates of the window created
