Use any of the components with:

use PBar::Simple;
use PBar::Progress;
use PBar::Label;

Or use all of them by calling the wrapper: use PBar::Main;

For working examples of each of the PBar functions, see demo.pl in the PBar archive.

PBar::Simple->Init

Initialises the display.

PBar::Simple->Update

Updates the display.

PBar::Simple->End

PBar::Progress->Init(int1,int2)

Initialises the display.

int1 is the maximum value expected (an integer), and int2 is the width in characters on the screen (also an integer).

int2 can be greater than the characters on a line; extra characters will simply cause the meter to be displayed on two (or more) lines.

Where int is an integer equal or less than the Maximum set.

PBar::Progress->End

PBar::Label->Init

The string is a message to be displayed on screen.
