Progress indicator in Xalan?

Hello 

How difficult will it be to code a progress indicator that would show the percentage of the
process when we parse and transform an XML into another XML/HTML using an XSL

Something similar to unix command line progress percentage indicator.

Somebody has made it for MS .NET using ASP and javascript for
UI(http://www.15seconds.com/issue/011212.htm). but what if we want to implement a command line
utility applicable to all XALAN processes/tranformations like providing an option while executing
...something like java org.xml... -p

Please let me know how can that be done or it has be already done. There will be lot of uses of
this kind of utility 

thanks

Jinesh
