I corrected some errors and made some modifications to my previous post:

class ProgressFile(file):
    def read(self, size = None):
        from sys import stdout

        if size is not None:
            buff = file.read(self, size)
            if buff:
                stdout.write('.')
            else:
                stdout.write('\n')
            return buff
        else:
            buff = ''
            while True:
                new_str = file.read(self, 1024)
                stdout.write('.')
                if new_str:
                    buff = buff + new_str
                else:
                    stdout.write('\n')
                    break
            return buff


if __name__ == '__main__':
    import sys

    fname = sys.argv[1]
    f = ProgressFile(fname)
    f.read()
