duckduckfedi: command for linux, which executes another command over and over, but keeps the output on a single line

I'd like to monitor
zramctl
NAME       ALGORITHM DISKSIZE  DATA  COMPR TOTAL STREAMS MOUNTPOINT
/dev/zram0 lz4          11,6G  1,2M 778,9K    1M         [SWAP]




without having to do the dumb "arrow up + enter" over and over

EDIT: found! watch
