GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool.
The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html.
This version is also available in lzip format. If your distro doesn't
yet distribute the lzip program, you can download it from
http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html
Changes in this version:
* Non-regular output files are no more overwritten by default.
* The option "--force", which forces overwriting of non-regular
output files has been added.
* The option "--preallocate", which preallocates space on disc for
output file has been added.
* Even more warnings have been added to the tutorial in the manual.
* Revert to use "long" instead of "time_t" for time variables.
Ddrescue only needs counting seconds and "time_t" causes warnings on
some systems.
Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
