+  <title>Progress Dialogue</title>
+    <p>
+	Use the <cmd>--progress</cmd> option to create a progress dialog. 
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+      <app>Zenity</app> reads data from standard input line by line. If a line is prefixed with #, the text is updated with the text on that line. If a line contains only a number, the percentage is updated with that number.
+    </p>
+	
+    <p>The progress dialogue supports the following options:</p>
+
+    <terms>
+
+      <item>
+        <title><cmd>--text</cmd>=<var>text</var></title>
+	  <p>Specifies the text that is displayed in the progress dialogue.</p>
+      </item>
+
+      <item>
+        <title><cmd>--percentage</cmd>=<var>percentage</var></title>
+	  <p>Specifies the initial percentage that is set in the progress dialogue.</p>
+      </item>
+
+      <item>
+	<title><cmd>--auto-close</cmd></title>
+	  <p>Closes the progress dialogue when 100% has been reached.</p>
+      </item>
+
+      <item>
+        <title><cmd>--pulsate</cmd></title>
+	  <p>Specifies that the progress bar pulsates until an EOF character is read from standard input.</p>
+      </item>

+      The following example script shows how to create a progress dialog:
