Job Board (Experimental)

For tools that run for a while, visual feedback can be provided to the user using the job board in the net.lewisship.cli-tools.job-status namespace.

Background processes (typically, running as individual threads, or core.async processes) can provide feedback on status and progress through a simple API. The job board updates status lines as they change, and highlights lines that have recently changed.

This is built on the tput command line tool, so it works on OS X and Linux, but not on Windows.

The above job-status-demo, like colors, can be added by including the net.lewisship.cli-tools.job-status-demo namespace.
