Is there a special echo-command that can do a progressbar?
I mean print a '.' without a linebreak? (like in unix)

I'm using winXP.

Try this;

Thanks,

I used the first solution, in the second solution its indicated that the delay can be fine tuned, however the ping delay must be integer and one ping attempt takes a couple of secs.
(The delay I use is: ping -n 1 localhost)
