Sometimes we encounter one or more file download failures, but the program currently does not show whether all files have been successfully downloaded before exiting.
It is recommended to add a feature that displays the counts of successful and failed downloads upon completion so that users can decide on subsequent actions.

Thank you.

You can check the log file for errors (--write-log FILENAME)
or check for a non-zero exit status code.

Thank you for your reply.
I have used this feature before, and while it does indicate whether the download was fully successful, it differs slightly from what I expected.

When updating an existing download, the program skips already downloaded files and retrieves only the missing ones. However, in some cases, certain works are removed from the website, making it difficult to determine how many files were found online, how many were skipped, and how many were downloaded.

Therefore, I would like the program to explicitly display a summary of successes and failures, such as:
Downloads successful: xxx, Skipped: xxx, Failed: xxx.
This would provide users with clearer and more intuitive feedback.
