Progress Bar? #88

I'd really like a ballpark on how I'm doing with a running backup. It can be per-file (based on chunk encryption/creation rate), or overall, but it'd just be handy all-around. No rush, noncritical, but figured I'd put it in for review. I hate to be the one to ask, since I know they're kinda wonky to do (as well as inaccurate by nature), but I don't see an existing issue opened, so I suppose it's not on anyone's radar. For the record, I have seen the -R flag, and I like it, but it only shows when the whole backup is finished.

The best thing you can do for now is use -v This will turn on verbose output and indicate the file that Cyphertite has just completed backing up. This will give you some evidence of progress.

This is helpful, but only to a certain point. When I'm backing up/restoring larger files, it would be really nice if I could tell approximately how much time is left. Also, are there plans on making a "human-readable" flag for file sizes?

Any update on this? I'd love to help if I can.
