Delay messsage overwites filename

[robkam]

When downloading images the delay message overwites the filename of the file being downloaded. There's no list of filenames scrolling upwards.

It's still listing the images on the same line (animated screen grab).

There is no easy way to update the characters in the previous lines in the terminal unless you do a full screen reset/clear. :-)

It scrolls the terminal screen lines okay when it's fetching the XML.

Do you mean that the Using API:Allimages to get the list of images message is printed repeatedly?:

Q1: When downloading images the delay message overwites the filename of the file being downloaded. Q2: There's no list of filenames scrolling upwards.

Sorry, I only noticed the PR title and picture before. (Q1)

For Q2, I found it a bit annoying before that the image names kept printing on the terminal, so if the process of downloading didn't get errors, it would keep reusing the last line (\r).

If any error occurs during the download of an image, it will print the error with \n (new line). This leaves error messages on the terminal instead of being overwhelmed by the list of useless image names.

Okay, that's fine. However the currently being fetched file name is unreadable because the message about the delay overwrites it.

Some space has been reserved for the delay message, so now at least it won't overwrite the filename when it starts to delay. (Of course, after 0.5~1s, it will still overwrite the filename, which is expected)
