lutil. Also I suggest using "meter" instead of "progress".

lutil-meter.h, meter.c.

Currently it's enabled by default. I have a feeling it should be disabled when various debug flags are set. Any thoughts? Would there ever be a situation where you want debug enabled *and* the progress meter enabled?

How would that work? The debug message would stream down your console and then the meter would have to consistently return to the start of the prompt/window to make any sense? Or would it would it switch to just showing an elapsed time and the end of the run?

The messages would all be interleaved; it would be rather ugly.
