Basic Usage
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Creation
It's simple to get started:
```ruby
progressbar = ProgressBar.create
```
Creates a basic progress bar beginning at `0`, a maximum capacity of `100` and
tells it to start.
```text
Progress: | |
```
### Marking Progress
Every call to `#increment` will advance the bar by `1`. Therefore:
```ruby
50.times { progressbar.increment }
```
Would output an advancing line which would end up here:
```text
Progress: |=================================== |
```
