Hi,

well, my version of rsync shows the percentage.

Code:

% rsync --version

If you use rsync with -v and --progress parameter, you might see something like that:

Code:

          59 100%    0.00kB/s    0:00:00 (xfer#1, to-check=0/1)

where "to-check=0/1" represents a overall progress 0 form 1 file, this could be used to calculate progress =)

Here's some example how to use rsync with pv (pipe viewer).
