Hello. There are a coreutils package with "advanced" cp and mv that can show the progress bar on file operations like copy/move. I installed it on my system and extracted the cp and mv binaries.
hoest@hoest:~$ which mv /usr/local/bin/mv hoest@hoest:~$ which cp /usr/local/bin/cp You need to place the 2 binaries in that locations. After, put this 2 aliases in your .bashrc: alias cp='/usr/local/bin/cp -g' alias mv='/usr/local/bin/mv -g' '-g' is the argument that tells to them command to show the progress bar. Hope it works ** Attachment added: "Compiled binaries with the progress bar included" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/64067/+attachment/4119571/+files/CPogMV.xz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64067 Title: a progress bar for 'cp' and 'mv' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/64067/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
