This is the output to `wget --progress=bar -o file 
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-27.2.tar.gz` on the file called 'file' (I 
attached the full file):

```

The idea would be to implement a similar dot bar to this one but without the 
percentage on the right, as it could be misleading (Because when downloading 
more than one file in parallel, we don't know the full size of the download 
queue, and so we can't calculate a coherent percentage. Think for example on a 
recursive download). Of course, we can support multiple dot bars when 
downloading in the console.
