Progress Finished Question
#12
Well, I figured I'd follow up on this and post my results after trial and error and Google-fu. The 'shutil' module just doesn't support returning progress complete. Even threading couldn't make it happen. The interpreter will not process another line until the copy or move function has completed. I've learned that multithreading doesn't truly perform tasks in parallel, it rapidly switches back and forth between tasks. This doesn't work for shutil.copy()/shutil.move() because the rapid switching pauses until the copy or move function has completed, just like the standard, singlethreaded way. I've read a topic or two of multi-processing, but wth...

I found that I could write my own copy function from scratch (which I may end up doing eventually); shutil utilizes it's own 'copyfileobject' function that I could re-write including some code for progress feedback, but wth. If any more experienced Pythonites want to try out some code and find my conclusions incorrect, please don't hesitate to share--it's a learning experience for me.
