Are you are aware that there is already a very nice progress bar library
for Python?

  http://pypi.python.org/pypi/progressbar

I have used it once for a small project and it worked very well. It is
only some 250 lines of code vs your 100 lines, but it provides many nice
features: it can display the estimated remaining time and the download
speed. It can also update itself in case the terminal window is resized.

The code is even LGPL, so including it wont be a problem.
