+Usage:
+======
+
+Wrap your for loop in an extra scope with a progressbar, like this:
+
+	{	// extra scope
+		Progressbar p(std::cout);
+		for(i = 0; i < 1000; ++i){
+			...
+			p.show(i, 999);
+		}
+	}	// end extra scope (destructor of Progressbar will be used).
+
+You can give extra information to show in the constructor:
+`Progressbar p(stream, "prefix", "Start message", " End message");`
+this will look like:
+
+	Start message
+	prefix [===============>               ]
+	End message
+
+You may leave these things empty (`""`).
+
+NOTE: the width of the bar (incl. prefix) is fixed ATM.
+NOTE: pass the maximum-value to the function show, not the bound of the for-loop (this way the function also works nicely for floating types)
