Ack, except last-line overwrite.
Authored by: Thom on Dec 29, '04 06:18:15PM

I should mention that my solution does NOT solve the last-line overwrite issue. It's kind of sad; even when I do little one-liners in perl or php, I have to remember to append a newline to them. (Or, pipe them to less!)

When asked, snooty people told me that all processes should end with a newline at the end of their output anyway. (So harumph, evidently!)

Sigh.
