Suggestion: Windows Taskbar progress #1

Closed ashmind closed 6 years ago

ashmind commented 10 years ago

I think it would be cool if this library optionally displayed the progress in Windows Taskbar.

This can be done through TaskbarManager from Windows API Code Pack, or by p/invoking WinAPI directly. Console window handle can be obtained from

[DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
private static extern IntPtr GetConsoleWindow();

Unfortunately I do not have time to do a proper implementation/pull request at the moment, so just an idea.
