Is it possible to "draw" progress bars? #91

I want to be able to do something similar to what gdbar does for dzen2. Is it possible to do that at all? I tried looking but didn't find anything.

Thanks for the awesome project btw!

I usually make a progress bar using the pipe char (|) and then print it as usual, looks pretty good

Yes, i did the same as LemonBoy, except for using the dash sign. Example: https://github.com/kevinvdburgt/dotfiles-old/blob/077a2a0431171c0a07f1c786cf5c34326379cc48/.bin/panel/panel_bar#L3

@kevinvdburgt Oh man! Such neat configs! I guess I will try that.

Thanks!
