Process some Folders and format the output

In Linux there are some Folders. I want to process each of this Folders with the program myprogramm. I get a list with ls -1 or much better, sure only Folders with: find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -printf '%f\n' | tr -d '.' | sed '/^[[:space:]]*$/d' I Can pipe this to xargs. xargs -I {} -n1 -P1 $(cat $TEMPDIR)/myprogramm -switch1 -switch2 -someoptions {}/ -o {}.info In one line : find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -printf '%f\n' | tr -d '.' | sed '/^[[:space:]]*$/d' | xargs -I {} -n1 -P1 $(cat $TEMPDIR/pwd)/myprogramm -switch1 -switch2 -someoptions {}/ -o {}.info That works so far. But i am looking for a way to bring a little bit info into it. Everytime if myprogramm ends, it would be nice to have an output like: Folder 1 of 22 finished Count how many Folders exist can i do with: find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -printf '%f\n' | tr -d '.' | sed '/^[[:space:]]*$/d' | wc -l But how to bring this into the line they process each Folders? And how to count after every one is finished one up? Next thing, how to bring a random sleep value after every finished myprogramm run and count them down before to work at the next Folder? A random sleep can do with sleep $(shuf -i 30-60 -n 1). But how to bring this into, and how to show and count them down?
