## 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
