The progress<\/span><\/strong> utility<\/span> for<\/span> tracking<\/span> command<\/span> execution<\/span> on<\/span> Linux.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can track process:<\/strong> cp, mv, dd, tar, bsdtar, cat, rsync, scp, grep, fgrep, egrep, cut, sort, md5sum, sha1sum, sha224sum, sha256sum, sha384sum, sha512sum, adb, gzip, gunzip, bzip2, bunzip2, xz, unxz, lzma, unlzma, 7z, 7za, zip, unzip, zcat, bzcat, lzcat, coreutils, split, gpg.<\/em><\/p>\n\n

\n# Debian \/ Ubuntu Linux:\nsudo apt install progress\n\n# RHEL \/ CentOS Linux:\nsudo yum install progress\n\n# Fedora 22+:\nsudo dnf install progress\n\n# Alternative \ngit clone https:\/\/github.com\/Xfennec\/progress.git\ncd progress\nmake\nsudo make install\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n
Split a console using tmux or open another session. In the first console, run a command; in the second, run a command progress -w. <\/strong>You<\/span> will see<\/span> the progress<\/span> of the process<\/span> at<\/span> the time<\/span> of running<\/span> the command.<\/span><\/p>\n
If you want to see progress in real-time, add ‘& progress -mp $!<\/strong>‘ at the end of the command.<\/p>\n
Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\ncp ubuntu-23.04-desktop-amd64.iso \/home\/user\/Downloads\/\u00a0& progress -mp $!\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n
Some definitions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
&<\/strong> – is the character at the end of the cp command that indicates to run it in the background;
-m<\/strong>  – is a progress option that starts a cycle that will continue as long as the monitored processes remain active;
-p<\/strong>  – is an option that allows you to specify the process to be tracked;
$!<\/strong>  – is a special shell variable representing the PID of the last background process, in this case, the cp command.<\/p>\n
On<\/span> Linux<\/span>, commands<\/span> can<\/span> be executed<\/span> in parallel<\/span>.<\/span> Using the progress<\/span> utility<\/span>, you<\/span> can<\/span> track<\/span> the work<\/span> of all<\/span> available<\/span> commands<\/span> at once.<\/span> For<\/span> example<\/span>, let’s run<\/span> three<\/span> file<\/span> copying<\/span> operations<\/span> and<\/span> use<\/span> the watch<\/span> tool as an argument for<\/span> which<\/span> we specify<\/span> the progress<\/span> –<\/span>q<\/span><\/strong> command.<\/span><\/p>\n
Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\n# update time is 2 seconds\nwatch progress -q\n# update time is every 1 second\nwatch -n 1 progress -q\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n
I prefer to split a console by using tmux. <\/strong><\/em>I run watch -n 1 progress -q<\/strong><\/em> in the bottom console and run commands at the top console by adding & at the end of each command, and processes still work in the background. Depending on permissions, you have to use sudo.<\/strong> <\/p>\n
