Specifying @samp{--progress=bar} will draw a nice ASCII progress bar
graphics (a.k.a ``thermometer'' display) to indicate retrieval. If the
output is not a TTY, this option will be ignored, and Wget will revert
to the dot indicator. If you want to force the bar indicator, use
@samp{--progress=bar:force}.
