> reprints for your terminal screen

Screenprints acts as a buffer for terminal display continuously printing output at a configured interval.

## api docs

Find them [here](https://softprops.github.io/screenprints)

## usage

Screensprints defines a `Printer` which implements [std::io::Write](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/io/trait.Write.html) which means anywhere you would normally write output to, you could substitude in an instance of a `Printer`.

```rust

extern crate screenprints;

use screenprints::Printer;

use std::io::{stdout, Write};

use std::time::Duration;

use std::thread;

fn main() {

    let mut printer = Printer::new(stdout(), Duration::from_millis(10));

    for f in &["foo.txt", "bar.txt", "baz.txt"] {

        for i in 0..51 {

            let _ = write!(printer, "Downloading {}.. ({}/{}) GB\n", f, i, 50);

            thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(50));

        }

    }

}

```

The result should look something like the following
