Showing the remaining time is in my todo list since some time ago. I 
promise it will be in 1.20. ;-)

Thanks for the patch. I plan to implement it differently. Maybe show the 
"remaining time" only in verbose mode, because it can be very 
misleading. (The last 1% of the data can take 90% of the total rescue 
time). As always, feedback is welcome.

Well, it is because of things like this that I wrote My Own Editor. ;-)


Best regards,
