Is there some way to manage a background transfer queue for dired? Maybe its easier to understand what I mean if I explain how I would like it to work:
- I mark a number of large files to be moved to another disk, which takes time. - dired puts the moves on a queue, and makes a "progress buffer" showing how far each move or copy has progressed. (this would look something like wget.el:s progress buffer) - each move or copy is done in the background with cp or mv shell commands, so emacs is not locked - Im now free to add more moves or copys to the queue by direding some other directory Ideally the same interface would be used for remote operations, with tramp or something. Sounds doable.
