[ jEdit-devel ] Proposal: progras bar on I/O operations

[Dalibor P. <dal...@is...>]

Many times when saving or opening large file (especially over SSH) I'm
wondering if JEdit has stalled
indefinitely or is just hard busy over slow I/O.
Progress bar of some kind would be very convenient in such situations. I
don't know what really happens
when saving/loading over SSH and if there is some way to attach progress
bar to the process but in case
that it's not possible then some kind of displaying SSH communication
would be nice - just to see that nothing
has died. For local I/O I believe it should be possible to implement
progress bar without significant problems.

What do you think?

Sorry for cross-posting; I believe that this subject is of interest to
both developers and broader audience.

Thank you,
