See the usage examples for a description of the expected input format.

A summary of options is included below.

-max Value to be considered 100% (default: 100)

-min Value to be considered 0% (default: 0)

-w Number of charcaters to be considered 100% in the bar (default:: 25 )
-s Symbol represeting the percentage value in the bar (default: =: )
-l label to be prepended to the bar (default: '' )
-nonl no new line, don't put '0 at the end of the bar (default: do: print '0)

Output: Sometext 25% [====== ]
If your 100% mark changes dynamically or 2-values input:: Command: echo "50 150" | dbar
Output: 33% [======== ]
If your value range is not between [0, maxval] or 3-values input:: Command: echo "50 -25 150" | dbar
