Hello.

Feature Request:
Include information about "current sector", "last readable sector" and
"last unreadable sector" when using "-vvvv" option, being viewed at real
time.

Something like:

rescued:  698655 KiB,  errsize:       1024 B,  current rate:  26208 KiB/s
   ipos:  698656 KiB,   errors:       2,    average rate:  69865 KiB/s
   opos:  698656 KiB,     time since last successful read:       0 s
   *csector: 1397312   *lrsector: 1397312   *lusector: 1397300

In most cases, such information could not be read due to the rate of
sectors changing, but I think It would help in diagnosis of damaged hard
drives. Per example, a damaged head usually generates big unreadable areas.
On the other hand, damaged platters commonly generates many unreadable
small areas. It would also be useful to show the activity of ddrescue when
running retries in slow areas.


Excuse my bad English.

Thanks and Regards,

William.
