Progress Bar
I have found a progress bar on github but when I try the following it does not
do anything

Code:
source progress_bar.sh
progress_bar 300

GitHub - nachoparker/progress_bar.sh: Progress bar for the shell

I have now modified my script this way. It works properly, however I have a white
on black colour scheme on my terminal and I am noticing a white box scrolling along
the line all the time. Can this be fixed?

Code:
# Counts the number of files to process
totfcn=$(find . -type f | tee /tmp/wrk | wc -l)

i=0; j=0
while read fn; do    
  printf -v XXX "%0*d" $((60 * ++i / totfcn))
  printf "\r[%-60s]" "${XXX//0/*}"
  printf "%4d%%" $((100 * ++j / totfcn))
  #${dir_mseed2sac}/mseed2sac $FN
done < /tmp/wrk
printf "\n"

printf "\n"

The white box is probably you input cursor you can hide/view it like this:

Code:
# Counts the number of files to process
totfcn=$(find . -type f | tee /tmp/wrk | wc -l)

# Hide cursor
tput civis

# Reveal cursor on program completion
trap 'tput cvvis' EXIT

i=0; j=0
while read fn; do    
  printf -v XXX "%0*d" $((60 * ++i / totfcn))
  printf "\r[%-60s]" "${XXX//0/*}"
  printf "%4d%%" $((100 * ++j / totfcn))
  #${dir_mseed2sac}/mseed2sac $FN
done < /tmp/wrk
printf "\n"
