You could also fill in the ok/failed status as things progress. So if |
| 10 |
the screen displays: |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Script A [ ok ] |
| 13 |
Script B [ ] |
| 14 |
Script C [ ok ] |
| 15 |
Script D [failed] |
| 16 |
Script E [ ] |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Scripts A and C have completed successfully, script D failed, and |
| 19 |
scripts B and E are currently running, and F-? have not started yet. |

Of course the code (in shell script no less!) to make this work would |
| 22 |
be tricky to say the least, and probably require creating some |
| 23 |
C-helper programs to move the cursor around. But it would be cool! |
