Great!  Glad to hear it!

I wouldn't be worried - it's actually the output of cpio -V and the
ftp grabs intermingled, so a meaningful count of dots isn't really
possible anyway.  I'm thinking of switching the "verbosity" of it
based on the Debugging flag; when Debugging is on, you see filenames
and not dots.
