longDescription =
'' Safecopy is a data recovery tool which tries to extract as much data as possible from a
problematic (i.e. damaged sectors) source - like floppy drives, hard disk partitions, CDs,
tape devices, etc, where other tools like dd would fail due to I/O errors.
Safecopy includes a low level IO layer to read CDROM disks in raw mode, and issue device
resets and other helpful low level operations on a number of other device classes.
