aux/statusbar [

title DESCRIPTION
Aux/statusbar reads textual status lines
from standard input, converting them into a
continuously updated bar graph displayed in a new window
on the screen.
The
title is displayed on a line above the bar graph.
Each input line is two space-separated decimal numbers:
the numerator and denominator of a fraction.
Statusbar exits when it reaches end-of-file on standard input. Typing DEL or control-C will also cause it to exit.
The options are:
-k do not allow typing to cause statusbar to exit
-t print an ASCII status bar to standard output, using backspace to redraw it
-w set the coordinates of the statusbar window created
