In the existing code, "diff" has function scope and the value from the
previous iteration may be used if it is not reset. This appears to be an
oversight. This commit changes its scope to the for loop body.
One confusing point is that the cursor movement escape sequences appear
to be necessary even if the requested movement is 0. I haven't been able
to figure out why this makes a difference.

pkg/ is a collection of utility packages used by the Docker project without being specific to its internals.
Utility packages are kept separate from the docker core codebase to keep it as small and concise as possible.
If some utilities grow larger and their APIs stabilize, they may be moved to their own repository under the
Docker organization, to facilitate re-use by other projects. However that is not the priority.
The directory pkg is named after the same directory in the camlistore project. Since Brad is a core
Go maintainer, we thought it made sense to copy his methods for organizing Go code :) Thanks Brad!
Because utility packages are small and neatly separated from the rest of the codebase, they are a good
place to start for aspiring maintainers and contributors. Get in touch if you want to help maintain them!
