Command Line Progress Bar

1.10.9

Bar is a simple tool to copy a stream of data from input to output while displaying for the user:

The amount of data passed
The throughput of the data transfer

and, if the total size of the data stream is known:

The estimated time remaining
What percent of the data stream has been copied
A progress bar

Bar was originally written for the purpose of estimating the amount of time needed to transfer large amounts (many, many gigabytes) of data across a network in a tar/ssh pipe.
