show_progress

Name

show_progress -- indicate progress to user as makethumbs runs

Synopsis

    show_progress=1
  

Description

makethumbs prints information to the user while it is executing to indicate how the script is progressing. With larger galleries, makethumbs can take a long time—over fifteen minutes for six hundred images in one case—and it's nice to see that everything is still working.

show_progress is a boolean value, so set it to 0 to disable the progress output.
