"""
Example application for the 'blessed' Terminal library for python.

This isn't a real progress bar, just a sample "animated prompt" of sorts that demonstrates the
separate move_x() and move_yx() capabilities, made mainly to test the `hpa' compatibility for
'screen' terminal type which fails to provide one, but blessed recognizes that it actually does, and
provides a proxy.
