295	synch files communication with user is poor; need a UI somewhat	Fred T. Hamster	bugdock	"+ synch files should report an error count, and which files the errors occurred on!
(does it really continue?  most of my code seems to stop right away on error.  so it's cool if it actually tries to keep churning away.)

+ also, why not finally fix it so synch files has got a reasonable  progress meter.
even dots.  dots would work.
no curses or fancy stuff needed, just dots.

maybe the implicit UI intention with the dots is that each file will be completed to N full dots, so you can get a feel for how much of the file is done.

dots are still pretty lame though.  there are a lot of nice progress meters out there that could show a bar moving with text inside showing percent done and stuff.  any thing reusable?  e.g. apt-get displays this kind of meter now.
