won't work in spyder?

[shammyD]

Trying usage example 1 in Spyder v5.0.0, python 3.9.2 and won't work?

Just static white boxes at the side that don't grow with job progress....

Maybe this is the same problem as in PyCharm, see #62 and #89. A workaround seems to be to add the following:

from fastprogress import fastprogress
fastprogress.printing = lambda: True

I fixed it in spyder with:

import sys
sys.stdout.isatty = lambda: True

Apparently fastprogress only works if sys.stdout.isatty() is True or if you are inside a notebook.
