newlines, newlines ...

I am wondering if there is a way, in M, to Print without getting a
newline each time.
It happens often to me when debugging, to introduce some kind of
progress indicator, say:

Print[Floor[100*i/max_i], "%"]

but I didnt want to clutter the screen so much. Besides, hundreds of
other possibilities come to mind when thinking about output without
ending newline...

As a side note, trying to solve this (minor) problem, I happened to
find:

ProgressIndicator[Dynamic[x]]

something which seemed perfect!
Yet, I'm still unable to use it: for some reasons it is not updated
<until> the calculation (which requires the progress indicator) is
finished. At that point, useless, the bar moves from zero to full (and
yes, dynamic updating is enabled)

Any hint for either problem is really welcome!
