Hi all, I'm new in pacman-dev, i would like to put a counter in pacman that say how many Kbyte/time left from the end of packages download, something like... gstreamer0.10-base- 227,0K 435,7K/s 00:00:01 [####################] 100% 47110 Kbyte left libgtop-2.22.2-1-i686 109,5K 332,3K/s 00:00:00 [#################] 100% 47000 Kbyte left Very useful when i'm at university and i have only 10 minute, if i don't know how many time pacman need for download all packages, i can't decide if stop it or attend the end. Now i want know the better place to write the code for do that... "I code better than i write in english IMHO :P". I find the function _alpm_downloadfiles_forreal_ .... thanks, Luca

Hello, please try to find a better subject title in the future :) You might be interested by the TotalDownload option described in pacman.conf man page.
