GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file or block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying to rescue the good parts first in case of read errors.

GNU Ddrescuelog is a tool that manipulates ddrescue mapfiles, shows mapfile contents, converts mapfiles to/from other formats, compares mapfiles, tests rescue status, and can delete a mapfile if the rescue is done.

The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html


Changes in this version:

* "logfile" has been renamed to "mapfile" everywhere, even in long option names. ("--domain-logfile" is now "--domain-mapfile", etc). This change overrides the renaming of "logfile" to "blockfile" made in rc2.

* Read-only mapfiles, like domain mapfiles or input mapfiles for ddrescuelog, can now be read from standard input if a hyphen '-' is used as mapfile name.

* "ddrescuelog --create-mapfile -" now writes the mapfile to standard output.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
