[Feature request] --silent option

[Folaht]

I'm using goenv in a script and it's creating a lot of download output when I do an --install.

@Folaht this is how it works.

$ goenv --install 1.20.7
Installing Go version 1.20.7...
https://dl.google.com/go/go1.20.7.linux-amd64.tar.gz
95.58 MiB / 95.58 MiB [--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------] 100.00% 11.75 MiB p/s 8.3s
Go version 1.20.7 is installed at /home/acharolia/.go/1.20.7.

$ goenv --use 1.20.7
Using Go version 1.20.7.
Please make sure to execute: source ~/.bashrc

$ source ~/.bashrc

$ go version
go version go1.20.7 linux/amd64

Could you please post that how you are downloading/installing ?
or maybe you have't downloaded the right goenv based on your CPU architecture (like arm, arm64, amd, amd64)
Kindly have a look here: https://github.com/ankitcharolia/goenv/releases/

I'm talking about having to do a
goenv --install 1.20.7 &>/dev/null in a script to suppress the 95.58 MiB / 95.58 MiB [-... output.
Many application have a --silent or --quiet option for this.

wget and curl have it.

ohk. I have intentionally added progress bar in golang (using third party library) just to make it fancy 😉

It's really nice, except for in scripts, because that will produce the output of each step.
