input can be piped from stdin, which is open-ended. So a progress bar isn't appropriate. r.in.xyz does some checks to see what kind of input is involved before checking filesize and rewinding, then using G_clicker() instead of G_percent(), but really for v.in.ascii IMO I don't think it's worth the trouble.

It's seems to me that at least in points mode progress message info can be printed. The file is scanned before the points are imported, see r32398 (not backported to devbr6).

i.e. in the first step of v.in.ascii the points are scanned for column type and sanitized then saved into a temporary file. then in a second step the temporary file is imported. G_percent() can work on the second stage as the number of points is known (r32398).

so shall we close this wish as "already done by martin"?

as it's not a bugfix I don't think backporting to 6.3/4 is appropriate.
