Alright, I have this script that pulls files from a few locations, process those files, creates a zip file, rsync's it and then removes everything.

The problem that I'm having is that I do not know how large the rsync'ed zip file is going to be. Right now I'm using a sleep command before I remove all the files and directories created, however I'm uncomfortable in leaving it like this. All it would take would be a large file that it needs to rsync and the script would delete the file before it's done being transferred.

So, is there a way of having the script check the progress of rsync? If not, how would I go about doing something along these lines?
