A good example on displaying progress bars or displaying info is the
"Updater" that you download with every version. Its name for current
version: "Update Scripts to Sweets V142".
Its useful, too, Dialog Director osax and its gauge:
dd install
dd make dialog -- using a gauge
do some stuff
dd set value of theGauge to ... -- update the gauge
do some stuff
dd set value of theGauge to ... -- update
dd delete dialog 1
dd uninstall
