This progression handler reports progress by updating the size of a file
on the file system. This provides a convenient way for an R script running
in batch mode to report on the progress such that the user can peek at the
file size (by default in 0-100 bytes) to assess the amount of the progress
made, e.g. ls -l -- *.progress.
If the ‘*.progress’ file is accessible via for instance SSH, SFTP,
FTPS, HTTPS, etc., then progress can be assessed from a remote location.
## Not run: handlers(handler_filesize(file = "myscript.progress")) with_progress(y <- slow_sum(1:100)) print(y) ## End(Not run)
