Hi, First, thank you very much for your continued work on this program! I have already gotten a lot of data off of my drive. It had a head problem that caused some platter damage. After swapping the head in a cleanroom, I'm in the process of still getting data off.
There are a few spots on the drive that when attempted to be read cause the disk to lock up. Nothing can see the drive anymore until I reboot. Trying the spot(s) again cause another lockup. Right now, I'm keeping track of different --input-position's, and rebooting a lot. For example, If I have a lockup at 2516M, I'll reboot and try at 2550M and search backward how close I can get before locking up. Now let's say that I have some errors between 2000M and 2516M that I want to retry. I already know that hitting 2516M would cause a lockup. If I could specify to stop program execution at 2515M, that would save me a few additional reboots. I don't see a way to do this with existing options. I can't use --max-size because I don't know how many if any errors between 2000M and 2515M will be read. Thanks! Mike
