Progress reporter with fancy characters.
This is a trivial modification to Emacs’ built-in progress reporter to display spinners using unicode characters.
To use unicode-progress-reporter, place the unicode-progress-reporter.el library somewhere Emacs can find it, and add the following to your ~/.emacs file:
(require 'unicode-progress-reporter) (unicode-progress-reporter-setup)
M-x customize-group RET unicode-progress-reporter RET
(unicode-progress-reporter-test)
Redefines ‘progress-reporter-do-update’.
Alters private variable ‘progress-reporter--pulse-characters’.
unicode-progress-reporter.el is available at github:
and via EmacsWiki:
Tested only on GNU Emacs version 24.1
Requires UcsUtils
