# sysutils/dd_rescue - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Tool like dd(1) for rescuing data from media with errors

    Like dd, dd_rescue does copy data from one file or block device to another.
    You can specify file positions (called seek and Skip in dd).

    There are several differences:
    * dd_rescue does not provide character conversions.
    * The command syntax is different. Call dd_rescue -h.
    * dd_rescue does not abort on errors on the input file, unless you specify a
      maximum error number. Then dd_rescue will abort when this number is
      reached.
    * dd_rescue does not truncate the output file, unless asked to.
    * You can tell dd_rescue to start from the end of a file and move backwards.
    * It uses two block sizes, a large (soft) block size and a small (hard) block
      size. In case of errors, the size falls back to the small one and is
      promoted again after a while without errors.
    * It does not (yet) support non-seekable in- or output.
