i'd like to show a progress bar or anything similar while loading data from a text file in R. I found something here but I can't adapt it to text files. I'm working with relatively big data sizes (over 8m rows, nearly 1-2gb per text file).

Is there anyway with the tcltk package to show a progressbar while loading the data to a dataframe ? (I'm going to use it in a script file for a backgroung execution. Thus, I'm looking for a tcltk package like message box)

Thank you very much !

  • `data.table::fread` has a progress bar option (`showProgress`). – pogibas Nov 27 '18 at 10:13
  • Thank you for your answer. I'd like to use it in a scipt as a batch file, so the objective is to do it in background. That's why i'd like to work with the _tclk_ package if possible. – Laurent Magon Nov 27 '18 at 10:35
