hi,

You requested comments on the alternative progress bars.

I think this one makes the most sense
Bar inbetween:
\ 1/6 Finding involved files [======                        ] 1151/8236

because (if I understand it right)
 * the 'Finding involved files' describes the '1/6' , which is nice like a
numbered list in documents and html:
 * the progress bar shows the second level progress  assosiated the item
index '1151/8236'

thus the progress tree follows logically from left to right from high-level
to low-level.

I hope this made sence
regards
marius
