  • Add status=progress option by default
  • Add a drop-down menu to change bs option
  • Add the possibility to use an external usb device as if and specify an output file for backing up units

@J316 status=progress is already set by default. Would you like the option to remove the option?
I tried with bs=1M but for some reason the status would not show.

But I guess I could add a checkbox for the options with an expander menu. What do yo think?

Yeah, status=progress is there by default, apologies for my mistake, there's absolutely no reason for an option to remove it. (I updated the list)
I don't know why changing the block size would cause the status not to show, but it's critical to have the possibility to choose it, because speed can be increased drastically by tuning that option.

@J316 Yeah I thought that was strange too, initially I had it set to 1M. I will do some tests later on and let you know of my findings.

To me it's good because I found 1M works the best, maybe someone else could need others, like 512K or I don't know
