Re: CL progress bar

["Timothy Adair" <tadair@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you to all responders, on-list and off-list.  These are some good

One final question (I hope) -
Is there a way in CL to set up a monitor that would increment a counter 
after each line of code (or each command) is executed?

~TA~
