El Capitan--is there a "working in background" indicator
Have spent too much time waiting for various things to complete (e.g., sync, copy/pasting files, opening large files or apps) with no indication that the Mac was "thinking" or "working". Several times this has ended in frustration because it WASN'T working on the requested action.
Ages ago (anywhere from 1986 to last year) I seem to recall a spinning "working in background" indicator on the menu bar.
Am I dreaming? Did this ever exist? Did I miss something obvious in System Settings?
I'm not talking about a progress bar or the rainbow spinning ball of death, just an indication that the Mac knows you asked it to do something and that its working in it.
Dreaming? Workaround? Alfred workflow? 3rd party app solution+
Thank you!
