A WScript.exe safe version:

dim progress
'clear the variable before starting
progress = ""
for each blah in blabbity
    progress = progress & "."
    'WScript.stdout.write doesnt add a newline so its a continuous line of dots
    If LCase(Split(WScript.FullName, "\")(UBound(Split(WScript.FullName, "\")))) = "cscript.exe" Then
        WScript.StdOut.Write progress
    End If
next
