I generally do not comment on comment on contrib/ material, and I am
not familiar with subtree myself, but
for count in $(seq 0 $total)
do
echo -n "$count/$total^M"
... do heavy lifting ...
done
echo "Done "
is an idiomatic way to implement a progress meter without scrolling
more important message you gave earlier to the user before entering
the loop away. The message appears, carrige-return moves the cursor
to the beginning of the line without going to the next line, and the
next iteration overwrites the previous count. Finally, the progress
meter is overwritten with the "Done" message. Alternatively you can
wrap it up with
echo
echo Done
if you want to leave the final progress "100/100" before saying "Done."
Isn't that what this piece of code trying to do?
