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: |===================================                                    |
```
