pv < someImageFile > /dev/disk/by-id/usb-TheNiceStick_0878101B77D1D977-0:0 > with bar, the replacement would be: > bar -s 4G -if someImageFile -of > /dev/disk/by-id/usb-TheNiceStick_0878101B77D1D977-0:0 pv has a -s option, but there's no need for it in this case, since fstat() will give it the size of the file on stdin. You need -s if the input is a pipe or socket, where fstat() won't work. Peter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
