    First, a word of caution. "Updating" a terminal or console is possible, but it is rife with gotchas and inconsistencies. The go to library/application for this type of interfaces is Curses. There are Ruby bindings, but this injects a system dependency that may or may not be available on a given platform. Also, Curses is way overkill if all you're doing is output.
