Progress is a Linux utility I wrote to print progress of pipe IO to stderr.
At the time (2002-2003) there were no such utilities. As of 2016, pv and the status=progress flag for dd make progress less interesting.
Progress is mostly for historical interest.
$ tar czf - *.pdf | progress -m1 > my-pdfs.tar.gz

You can download some precompiled versions here: progress
$ make install PREFIX=/usr/local/
$ dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
This may be wrong:
$ rpmbuild -ba progress.spec
