Description nbr 2019-04-11 15:18:34 MSK
When control++ parsing whitelist, it is showing nothing while parsing
filesystem information. 
Users are thinking that the program has hanged and can cancel its work.
control++ either should work much faster or show progress bar of some sort.

It's able to perform 'whitelist' mode setting in about 1 minute on my single-core 8GB virtualbox machine. On the other hand, ability to give more feedback would be useful indeed. Though it will took some time to add this functionality. But you already can start using '--verbose' flag.

I added feature of instant feedback to the libcontrol++ and applied it to saturate verbose output when performing mode setting

So it will be hard to think that the program has hanged, just wait a bit for a next release of control++ and not forget to use '--verbose' or '-v' option.
