+Make curl display transfer progress as a simple progress bar instead of the
+standard, more informational, meter.
+
+This progress bar draws a single line of '#' characters across the screen and
+shows a percentage if the transfer size is known. For transfers without a
+known size, it will instead output one '#' character for every 1024 bytes
+transferred.
