As far as I'm aware Antonio is looking into the skip ahead size option, there has been a few back & forward mails about such a feature in the last two weaks so maybe read the other topics in this mailing list.
I have just announced[1] 1.15-pre2 which includes the new option "-a, --min-read-rate" for skipping over slow areas. Currently ddrescue uses the same jumping algorithm for slow areas and damaged areas. Lets see how well it works before adding yet another option.

I asked about a reverse read a long time ago but I cannot remember the replies.
Reverse read is implemented since version 1.14-pre2 (2010-11-27). https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-ddrescue/2010-11/msg00010.html Best regards, Antonio. _______________________________________________ Bug-ddrescue mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-ddrescue
