climate: Progress bar rendering on Windows broken

I’m using ANSICON (because default terminal don’t support ANSI escape codes, in fact ANSICON don’t do it well too) on Win8x64, CLImate just renders new line each time it increments, without erasing old one.

So it looks like this:

>

==>
===>
====>
=====>
======>
=======>

=========>

===============================>
================================>
=================================>
==================================>
===================================>
====================================>
                         n%

Well, i know that it’s a Windows problem, but look at Composer, it renders progress bar fine even on Windows 😉

The solution is to change this line in src/Util/System/Windows.php

$output = $this->exec('mode', true);

by this one

$output = $this->exec('mode CON', true);

I use ConEmu and I see a similar bug with the Padding class that is related to a wrong width size detection of the terminal window. I have solved by the suggestion of @yparisien. Regards from Italy

I’ve tested with Cmder and nothing is broken. I’m on Windows 8.1 using PHP 5.5.12
