Printing without 'next line' and overwrite previous data

[Butchijo]

Hi,
I am writing a simple python test program that repeatedly reads a string value (from a file) and i want to print that value to the same line on the console (using Putty) and overwriting the previous output to that line on the screen. So basically i want to print with only a 'return' and no 'linefeed'.
Can somebody suggest how to do that.

An alternative method may be to print over and over to a specific coordination on the Putty console screen. Is there in Python a way to do that.

BTW I am using Putty/SSH to connect to the raspberry pi

Hope somebody can help.
