HTTP_Request_Listener is an abstract class that can be extended to capture events and respond to them as they occur. Included with HTTP_Request is an example of a console-based progress bar. To implement this, the HTTP_Request_DownloadListener class is used, which uses the Console_ProgressBar package to display a download progress meter.
In order to use a listener, it must attach to the specific HTTP_Request or HTTP_Response object that you want to monitor. The attach code is shown at the bottom of the example. As you can see, the event listener is propagated from the HTTP_Request object to any child HTTP_Response objects, and attaching only need happen to the first HTTP_Request object.
Download progress bar with HTTP_Request_Listener

* An example of Listener usage with HTTP_Request. This downloads and saves

*
* Note two things:
* 1) The file should be run in console, not in browser;
* 2) You should turn output buffering OFF for this to work properly.

The HTTP_Request class sends these events:
connect
- upon server connection, this event is sent
sentRequest
- after the request was sent, this event is sent
disconnect
- after server disconnect, this event is sent
The HTTP_Response class sends these events:
gotHeaders
- this event is sent after receiving response headers
(headers are passed in $data as an associative array)
tick
- this event is sent on receiving a part of response body
(the part is passed in $data as a string)
gzTick
- this event is sent on receiving a part of response body
that is gzip-compressed (the part is passed in $data as a string)
gotBody
- this event is sent on after receiving the
complete response body (the decoded body is passed as a string in $data if it was gzipped)
