NPM task runner does not show dynamically updated lines #53

Description

NPM task runner does not show dynamically updated lines. Example: The progress of the ng build watch task is not shown. When run from a regular console it shows the progress on a continuously updated line in percentages.

Steps to recreate

  1. Setup an ng build watch task
  2. Run it
  3. Conclude that the task output is not showing the progress (dynamically updated line)

Current behavior

See description.

Expected behavior

Dynamically updated lines should also be shown in the task runner output window

This is a limitation of the Task Runner Explorer window and not the extension itself. @Andrew-MSFT Any updates on whether this will be fixed? It's been on my wish list for a very long time. /cc: @madskristensen

I have fallen back to using a command prompt because of this....
