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 logfiles, shows 
logfile contents, converts logfiles to/from other formats, compares 
logfiles, tests rescue status, and can delete a logfile if the rescue is 
done.

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


Changes in this version:

  * ddrescue now warns that sizes shown are limited to the domain when 
domain is smaller than logfile.

  * "ddrescuelog -t" now shows logfile and domain extents when domain 
is smaller than logfile.

This is the final release candidate before 1.18 stable.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
