  Description     : Bar is a simple tool to copy a stream of data and show 
status informations

 Bar is a simple tool to copy a stream of data and print a display for the user 
on stderr showing (a) the ammount of data passed, (b) the throughput of the 
data transfer, and (c) the transfer time, or, if the total size of the data 
stream is known, the estimated time remaining, what percentage of the data 
transfer has been completed, and a progress bar.

 Bar was originally written for the purpose of estimating the ammount of time 
needed to transfer large ammounts (many, many gigabytes) of data accross a 
network. (Usually in an SSH/tar pipe.)
