Re: [Bug-ddrescue] new version of ddrutility

[Scott Dwyer]

I have release an updated version of ddrutility (version 2.6), which is 
a set of tools to help compliment ddrescue. It can be found at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ddrutility/

It is mostly some improvements and bug fixes, but that is not why I 
posted on here. It also includes a new tool that I sort of mentioned on 
here, but does not include all the functions. It does have the ability 
to perform read long commands, although all reads are to the screen at 
this time. But I also mentioned the read error control timer. I have 
decided that since ddrutiltiy is meant to be compliment to ddrescue, it 
should not include things that are altering or destructive to a drive. 
And while the error control timer seems like it resets when a drive is 
rebooted, it is still a drive altering command.

I am hoping/planning to make a different more advanced utility in the 
future, one that will allow very advanced control. But it will not be 
linked to ddrescue in any way, and will be separate from ddrutilty.
