Show which files were moved in the message buffer? #110

Open phoenixanimations opened 5 years ago

phoenixanimations commented 5 years ago

Right now on async it just shows: Asynchronous Move of 1 on 1 file done. I would like for there to be an option that shows which files were moved. i.e: Asynchronous Move of 1 on 1 file done: ~/Desktop/foo.txt -> ~/Downloads/foo.txt.

I don't expect this to be in the modeline, and would prefer it to be in message buffer, or its own buffer. If this is too drastic of a request I understand.

This would be redundant, when copying files, the files beeing copied are shown in a special buffer and of course you know the destination. If there is a failure and one or more files are not copied for any reason, you will be notified in the dired-log buffer popping up immediately at end of operation.

I can see this in the modeline [1 Async job(s) running], but I do not see any special buffer. What is it called? Is there something I have to do to make it show up?

Well, I do see a buffer *emacs*, but it just has Lisp expression: in it, nothing else, no filenames.

Thanks!

Also if you are using helm and copy very large files, you can use M-V from helm-find-files which uses rsync (not async package) and have a real progress bar in modeline.

I'm not using helm.

So, where is "the files being copied are shown in a special buffer"?

You see it when starting copying, not during copying (or moving etc...).
