Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It's currently not possible to know how far conversion has progressed when using freaccmd. This is a problem especially when converting larger files.

Describe the solution you'd like I would appreciate a progress report with a percentage like so:

kittenswolf:~$ freaccmd -e fdkaac -o input.aac sample.opus
Processing file: sample.opus...  1%

...

kittenswolf:~$ freaccmd -e fdkaac -o input.aac sample.opus
Processing file: sample.opus...  56%

and when it's done:

kittenswolf:~$ freaccmd -e fdkaac -o input.aac sample.opus
Processing file: sample.opus...  100%

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

Additional context I'm aware there is progress feedback since there is a live progress bar in the GUI, but I don't know how hard this would be to implement in the CLI tool.
