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

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

This version is also available in lzip format. If your distro doesn't 
yet distribute the lzip program, you can download it from 
http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html


Changes in this version:

  * The new option "-E, --max-error-rate", which stops ddrescue when 
the error size grows too fast (in Bytes/s), has been added.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
