<div>Use case: I have a collection of Python command line
utilties that can take up to several minutes to run. These are
utilities may be called from other applications. Our users
have asked whether these utilities can display a progressbar
while they are running.</div>

<div>Our utilities are very lean right now and easy to
distribute and support. We would like to avoid having to use
Tkinter or large GUI frameworks like wxPython and pyQt if at
all possible.</div>
