    also having TotalDownload as the default is great

      What does that do?

        Let me give you an example:

        Imagine you’re going to update a lot of packages in your system. With TotalDownload, instead of having it show the dowloaded percentage of each package to the right of the progress bar, it will show the percentage of the entire update, so you have a better idea of how long it will take for you to download the entire update.

          I don’t like how that option also shows the total MB downloaded. While having the percentage reflect the total progress is awesome, showing the total MB progress is useless in my opinion and I’d much rather see the MB progress of the current downloaded package. Would be cool to be able to get the best of both worlds

          Sounds good! I was thinking about something similar a few months ago but the Arch community isn’t exactly very open minded to suggestions, so I gave up posting it in the forum.
