(You probably know this as you use OpenBSD, but) something I really like about BSDs is that nost of the core commands respond to ^T with progress info ofsome kin, dd included.
- arjie 10y agoWoah. That's neat. Thank you!
- ksherlock 10y agocool - by default, ^T generates the non-standard SIGINFO. That seems to be true of other BSDs as well, including OS X.
- gkya 10y agoAlso, Linux dd responds to SIGUSR1, writing progress info on stdout. Sth. to be vary of is that the same signal kills BSD dd.
