Correct handling of commands that output percentage bars etc #13

For example how composer update shows a percentage of the package being installed currently each value is displayed i.e 5% ... 10% .. 20%.. etc. I think a special character or something along those lines is sent to the terminal to indicate it should clear previous output.

Some useful info here, it doesn't look like it would be that hard to do :smile:
