This would probably not be a bug to anyone else but me, but as I might have mentioned before, I am working on software to use ddrescue to extract individual files from a disk. My problem is that the "$" in the file name for either the destination file or the log file causes part of the name to not appear.

The command:
ddrescue -i16384 -o0 -s258048 /dev/sdb1 "inode_0_$MFT" "inode_0_part0_$MFT.log"

Results in the destination file name to be "inode_0_", and the logfile name to be "inode_0_part0_". From my testing it seems that anything after the $ until the next special character is lost.

Thanks,

Scott
