>Description:
I would like to see the progress utility (originally from NetBSD base system sources) imported into the FreeBSD base system. This is useful for an ASCII progress bar in conjunction with the dd command as is used e.g. by g4u:

Any constructive feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance & kind regards,
