Just as an example, this is one typical output line.
> ...........................\(+112394240){X X}\(+209715200)
I have gone through the DESCRIPTION OF OUTPUT in safecopy's manpage but I still am not quite sure what exactly it means.
For example, if
(+112394240)
is "the number of blocks (or bytes) [which is it?] continuously read successfully up to this point." and if (+209715200)
is the "number of blocks (or bytes) of recent continuous unreadable data.", then how can the latter be larger than the former?
Additionally, what is the meaning of {X X}
, does it mean that only one block (block 12792709) was unreadable?
Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
