ddrescue is also useful for disk read tests with /dev/null as output file. In this case it is not necessary to require --force, see attached patch.
Well, I don't like exceptions. And the patch needs to be uglier to catch all the ways of naming /dev/null (../dev/null, /dev//null, etc).
I think it is better to pass the -f to ddrescue without exceptions. Best regards, Antonio. _______________________________________________ Bug-ddrescue mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-ddrescue
