Hi,
thank you for the info.
I already have inserted a progress bar(Term::ProgressBar) in the last 
four lines. The problem is that i see the progress at the end. I see 
directly 100%done. See the attached script.
What i was reading in the modules underlying the script the way the 
stream is constructed it should be able to be read from while is being 
downloaded. But when i get fasta seqs with NCBI rettype=fasta it is not 
possible.
