Over write text in a window's console application
Today I had a need to display a counter on a Console application and I was trying to think of a way to over write the existing number with the new number in the console window, using C#. So after thinking about it for a minute it came to me, just write backspace characters. Well anyways just incase anyone would ever need this here is a simple example:
for(int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
{
if(i > 0)
Console.WriteLine(new string('\b', (i-1).ToString().Length));
Console.WriteLine(i.ToString());
}
