Got the app a few days ago and was amazed at how Beautiful Soup was a part of one of the libraries. Decided to import some code I was writing on my computer that downloads some stuff from a certain website, and when my program comes to a line to print out the status of something that's downloading, it keeps updating itself with each new line instead of on a single line like so on my laptop. Is this just a problem with the app itself, iOS, or my program? If it helps, the line is basically this:

sys.stdout.write("\r ...%d%%, %d MB, %d KB/s, %d seconds have passed" %(percent, progress_size / (1024 * 1024), speed, duration))
sys.stdout.flush()

Other than that, this program's great and with my free time, I'm starting to play around with changing some of my programs to work with the UI stuff.

Pythonista's console doesn't support using the carriage return like that. You can clear the current output like this however:

import console
console.clear()

ah ok. Thanks!
