Linux tool to show progress for cp, mv, dd
`alias cpProgress='rsync --progress -ravz'`
has been in my ~/.bashrc for the majority of my career for large file transfers.

`rsync` interprets paths a little differently than cp (such as trailing / or no trailing / on directories). Do you have a convention you normally call this with to avoid differences in behavior?

good question since shell's completion behaves differently in adding trailing slashes
