Usage

1. Install it with $ pip install temprint

2. Now you can use the temprint function, as in:

from time import sleep
from temprint import temprint

msgs = [
    'a short message',
    'a slightly longer message',
    'a tiny msg',
    'a very big message. it is so big that it cannot fit in your ' +
    'terminal width and temprint will behave as a regular print',
    'now a short message again',
    'and a shorter message'
]

for msg in msgs:
    temprint(msg)
    sleep(2)

You should see the messages being printed and then erased iteratively.

If the message is longer than your terminal width, temprint will behave as the regular built-in print function.

The temprint function can receive a series of objects to be printed and a separator:

>>> temprint('first', 'second', 'third', sep='/')
first/second/third
