Progress Display

BCMR provides two progress display modes for all file operations.

Fancy Mode (Default)

A TUI box with:

• Total progress bar with color gradient
• Transfer speed and ETA
• Current file name and per-file progress bar
• Item count (for remove operations)
• Scanning indicator (pipeline mode shows files found in real time)

Supports Ctrl+C (clean exit with partial file cleanup) and Ctrl+Z (suspend/resume on Unix).

Plain Mode

A 3-line text display suitable for logs, pipes, and terminals without box-drawing support.

Enable with --tui / -t flag, or set progress.style = "plain" in config.

Copying: [=========-----------] 45%
12.34 MiB / 27.00 MiB | 5.67 MiB/s | ETA: 00:03
File: largefile.zip [====----] 50%

Pipeline Scanning

When no overwrite prompt or dry-run is needed, BCMR uses pipeline mode — copying starts immediately while directories are still being scanned. The progress display shows a scanning animation with the file count updating in real time, then switches to the normal progress view once scanning completes.

Customization

See Configuration for color gradients, bar characters, and border styles.
