It is hard to distinguish “o” and “O” in loading progress

It is hard to distinguish o and O in loading progress: if (j == pages_per_char) { if (curr == pages_per_char) fprintf(out, "O"); else if (curr == 0) fprintf(out, " "); else fprintf(out, "o");

  j = curr = 0;
}

I think replace ‘o and O’ with other characters is better

Yes I agree, unfortunately I don't really want to change vmtouch's output at this point since I know some people parse its output with scripts and I don't want to break these scripts.

I would be open to a switch that displays this in a better way.

In my vmprobe project I am using unicode characters which gives a bigger range of detail:
