It is indeed '\r'!
I had put it at the beginning of the string, figuring that this will overwrite the old. Now I see that you end the line with '\r' (works in C++ too). Silly me!
I will check out Time::Progress for Perl!

Download the Time::Progress module, it's very helpful. I use it like this:
my $pb = 'Time::Progress'->new;
$pb->attr(max => $count);
while (...) {
$pb->report("%50b %p ($i/$count)\r", $i);
