Example Using step progression:

>>> def printatestbar1():
...     bar = ProgBar('test1', 20)
...     bar.start()
...     while bar.isAlive():
...         time.sleep(0.1)
...         bar.fill()
...     bar.join()
>>> printatestbar1()
test1 [####################] 100%
>>>

Example Using percentage progression:

>>> def printatestbar2():
...     bar = ProgBar('test2', 20)
...     bar.start()
...     while bar.isAlive():
...         bar.percent += 1
...         time.sleep(0.1)
...     bar.join()
>>> printatestbar2()
test2 [####################] 100%
>>>

Example Interupting the progression bar:

>>> def printatestbar3():
...     bar = ProgBar('test3', 20)
...     bar.start()
...     while bar.isAlive():
...         bar.percent += 1
...         if bar.percent == 50:
...             bar.stop()
...             break
...         time.sleep(0.1)
...     bar.join()
>>> printatestbar3()
test3 [##########-         ]  50%
>>>
