rox with transmision bar ??

[Argolance]

Hello,
By quickly rereading the messages of this thread from the beginning, It seems that fabrice_035's work responds to this Semme's suggestion.
Moreover, Semme proposed a small (internationalized at least in French) "MiniCopier" program which is far from being without interest: it is indeed exactly what Rox should naturally do...

[EDIT]: Link to minicopier-0.5_all.pet package with menu desktop file and icon (java environment required).

Cordialement.

Bonjour,
I thought this might be helpful:
How to show the transfer progress and speed when copying files with cp?
And especially this:

progress - Coreutils Progress Viewer Build Status
What is it?
This tool can be described as a Tiny, Dirty, Linux-and-OSX-Only C command that looks for coreutils basic commands (cp, mv, dd, tar, gzip/gunzip, cat, etc.) currently running on your system and displays the percentage of copied data. It can also show estimated time and throughput, and provides a "top-like" mode (monitoring).

Code: Select all

# ./progress --help
progress - Coreutils Viewer
---------------------
Shows progress on file manipulations (cp, mv, dd, ...)

Monitored commands (default):
cp mv dd tar cat rsync grep fgrep egrep cut sort md5sum sha1sum sha224sum sha256sum sha384sum sha512sum adb gzip gunzip bzip2 bunzip2 xz unxz lzma unlzma 7z 7za zcat bzcat lzcat split gpg 

Usage: ./progress [-qdwmM] [-W secs] [-c command] [-p pid]
  -q --quiet                   hides all messages
  -d --debug                   shows all warning/error messages
  -w --wait                    estimate I/O throughput and ETA (slower display)
  -W --wait-delay secs         wait 'secs' seconds for I/O estimation (implies -w, default=1.0)
  -m --monitor                 loop while monitored processes are still running
  -M --monitor-continuously    like monitor but never stop (similar to watch ./progress)
  -a --additional-command cmd  add additional command to default command list
  -c --command cmd             monitor only this command name (ex: firefox)
  -p --pid id                  monitor only this process ID (ex: `pidof firefox`)
  -i --ignore-file file        do not report process if using file
  -o --open-mode {r|w}         report only files opened for read or write
  -v --version                 show program version and exit
  -h --help                    display this help and exit

Multiple options allowed for: -a -c -p -i. Use PROGRESS_ARGS for permanent arguments.

Code: Select all

# watch progress -q

Excellent discovery Mister Argolance. I can imagine a graphical user interface to do justice to this very good program. you can do that ?

Bonjour,
@fabrice_035
When reporting this little amazing program, I didn't think to make any GUI (though it may be interesting indeed to create a daemon working in the background), but rather that it could be used to solve the question asked in this thread (and some others?). If the cp progress report could be displayed directly inside the rox copy window, it would be great!
There must be someone on this forum who knows how to do this, right?

Cordialement.

Let's do as usual, wait for someone to do it.

Well I read in the news that woodenshoe has moved on to other projects, but you never know someone might pop up and do it, in the meantime there is always gatotray to tell you what is occuring
