+Things still to do.  (GH#n) indicates the Github issue tracker number.

-  - store terminal state in shm seg (Lars Ellenberg - Feb 2018)

-  - (same as above) option to make input suffixes decimal not binary (ie kb rather than KiB)
-  - allow decimal values for -s, -L, -B (suggestion - Thomas Watson)

-  - reset ETA on SIGUSR1 (Jacek Wielemborek - Jan 2019)
-  - option to enable O_DIRECT (Romain Kang, Jacek Wielemborek)

-  - (#1553) one-shot option (Jacek Wielemborek)
-  - (#1505) option to switch rate to per minute if really slow

-    (Jacek Wielemborek)
-  - (#1476) (Debian #507682) adjustable averaging window for rate display

-  - normalise progress to 100% if overrun (Andrej Gantvorg - Mar 2018)

-  - incorporate rate limit patch (Jered Floyd - Dec 2018)
-  - option --sparse (with block size option) to write sparse output (Andriy Galetski - Apr 2019)

-  - option to show speed gauge (% max speed) if progress not known (Ryan Cooley - Jun 2019)
-  - look at

-    total e.g. --watchfile [file] --size [size] (Zach Riggle)
