It copies data from one file or [T] block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to rescue [T] data in case of read errors. GNU ddrescue does not truncate the output [T] file if not asked to. So, every time you run it on the same output file, [T] it tries to fill in the gaps. The basic operation of GNU ddrescue is [T] fully automatic. That is, you don't have to wait for an error, stop [T] the program, read the log, run it in reverse mode, etc. If you use the [T] logfile feature of GNU ddrescue, the data is rescued very efficiently [T] (only the needed blocks are read). Also you can interrupt the rescue at [T] any time and resume it later at the same point.
