I know.  This is why i TRIED TO KEEP THE "Receiving objects" line as 
short as possible.

I thought about that too, but this is not perfectly portable to all 
terminals according to a quick glance at /etc/termcap. Does the Windows 
console support it? Also we might prefer not to rely on termcap/terminfo 
library calls.

The other solution is to make the remote object summary line a bit 
longer, but this will be effective only when remote servers are 
upgraded.  Might that be good enough?
