require user interaction?
One trick if you want to stick to vanilla scriptlets (i.e. no OSAX or
special compilers) is to have a dialog box that gives up rapidly, and
then have another, nearly identical, dialog pop up later in the script
indicating a different level of progress. Also, check the archives for
a technique using TextEdit to create a progress indicator.
