#31 Feature Request: Percentage indicator in console mode

[Anonymous]

Hi!
It would be nice if you can write the percentage of the
operation when I extract an archive or when I test an
archive(Console mode).And another tip:When I'm
extracting the first file from an archive the
compressor 'Skips' the rest of the files.However if I press
CTRL+C (after it extracts that file) the operation is
interrupted and I have the file on the disk what I want.(I
use FAR manager with the Custom.ini modification).So it
would be nice if the program can detect that a file
already extracted or not,and it finish the operation
without 'Skipping' the not-wanted files.

Anyway this is the best compressing program I've ever
seen.It's fast and it can compress very well.Thank you
for your GREAT program.

(P.S.:Is there any delphi source code for it?)
(P.S.2:Not PlayStation2 :) I apologize for my English it's
not my natural I'm Hungarian.I hope that you understand
what I wanted to write.)

Thank you!

1) percent for extact. Actually it can slow down extracting
process.
2) 'Skips' problem. I know about it. Some day I'll fix it.

Okay...so the indicator CAN slow down extraction...but it
would be nice to have an option to turn it on if wanted. I
know *I* (and I'm not the original requestor) would LOVE
this feature. It shows it when it's compressing it...why
not decompressing? It's difficult sometimes to know if it's
locked up or actually working when nothing gets printed.
Even some periods periodically would be nice!

To continue my thought from my previous comment, there is
something to be said for a good user interface. Having a
percentage indicator when compressing but not when
decompressing is NOT a good user interface. Just my humble
opinion, but one that bears thinking about.
