Unwanted characters printing after bar.finish()
Windows 10, Python 3.9.7
Running this code:
`import random import time from progress.bar import Bar
def sleep(): t = 0.01 t += t * random.uniform(-0.1, 0.1) # Add some variance time.sleep(t)
bar = Bar('Processing') for i in bar.iter(range(200, 400)): sleep() bar.finish()`
Yields this in the console: Processing |################################| 200/200 [?25h
The last line is the unexpected output.
Investigation: When finish() runs, it prints '\x1b[?25h' if hidden_cursor is True. On my system that results in the unwanted characters shown above. Probably a Windows thing?
Workaround: add bar._hidden_cursor = False before bar.finish()
I had the same issue and I found a good solution in this stackoverflow post
Windows 10, Python 3.11.3
It seems that Windows does not really support the VT100 terminal escape codes. The Python cursor module implements a platform independent cursor hide/show. It uses the Windows API on Windows and the VT100 codes on Posix.
I just created a pull request (https://github.com/verigak/progress/pull/109)
