Sometimes you would just like to show the user some progress, but a progress bar is not suitable because you don’t know how much longer it would take. In these cases you might want to display a simple spinner using the spinner() function.

Example usage:

with click.spinner():
        do_something()
        do_something_else()

It looks like this:

Spinner class based on on a gist by @cevaris.

Thanks for your contribution, however, I think this is more appropriate as a third-party package, see http://click.pocoo.org/5/contrib/

OK, I understand, I've created a contrib repo called "click-spinner", could I put it under click-contrib?

[untitaker]

I've invited you, you should be able to just transfer your repo to the org. Your access to the repo will be preserved, but you won't have write-access to other repos.

Done. Code moved to click-contrib/click-spinner. 10x.
