 Multiprocessing
 ===============================================================================
 Example by Michele Simionato in comp lang python.
 Here is an example of using multiprocessing (which is included
 in Python 2.6 and easy_installable in older Python versions)
 to print a spin bar while a computation is running::
     import sys, time
     import multiprocessing
     DELAY = 0.1
     DISPLAY = [ '|', '/', '-', '\\' ]
     def spinner_func(before='', after=''):
         write, flush = sys.stdout.write, sys.stdout.flush
         pos = -1
         while True:
             pos = (pos + 1) % len(DISPLAY)
             msg = before + DISPLAY[pos] + after
             write(msg); flush()
             write('\x08' * len(msg))
             time.sleep(DELAY)
     def long_computation():
         # emulate a long computation
         time.sleep(3)
     if __name__ == '__main__':
         spinner = multiprocessing.Process(
             None, spinner_func, args=('Please wait ... ', ''))
         spinner.start()
         try:
             long_computation()
             print 'Computation done'
         finally:
             spinner.terminate()
