Description korte 2022-02-21 18:06:51 UTC
It would be nice if "genlop -c --progress" (and -P) or --asciibar, --bar would show an ascii bar like wget or pv do. When using it with watch genlop would seem to have an updated bar.
 
|=======>------,------->|....!
              min      ETA  max

The description should imho be included. Showing min, ETA, max (e.g. of the last 10 merges) would also be a workaround for #658940 .

With always nearly the same emerge time it could be:
|=======>-------------,>|!
                   min ETA max
or:
|=======>-------------->|
                  min->ETA<-max

ETA should imo be the central, most important information:
|,======>-------------->|..............>>>
min                    ETA             max


Reproducible: Always
