[Bug-ddrescue] Re: Bug-ddrescue Digest, Vol 41, Issue 11

[mufngruf]

Thank you for that "whoa"
I was getting a little snowed under with bitbabble...and just the phrase 
"development tools" scared the willies outta me.
Sadly I am the victim of a triple whammy - my neighbours/friends etc know very 
little about even their own PC's  - no-one I know in the hinterlands of 
Northern England uses Linux and anyway I get the familiar response of "Aw Jeez, 
It's a mac- don't no NOTHIN' 'bout no macs..sorry mate."
I hadn't realised that this would be so difficult... I have managed to "file 
salvage" a number of pieces of Data along with all the millions of unidentified 
icons, templates, help files and license/registration forms and vast quantities 
of voices, alerts and other assorted sounds...
and, as time goes by, I shall wade through and pick the wheat from the chaff, 
as it were.
I was just hoping that this "testdisk" thingy was the treat t'beat the band, 
y'know?
so... I shall persevere unless someone can make it simple enough for me to 
follow even though I'm ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE that, once I find out how to 
terminal/command the beast, I'll be astounded at how easy it was - after all I 
can "fsck" command like a pro after only a few times... But maybe it's just 
like my guitar playing. Years ago I managed to learn to play "Anji" and, as 
time went by, I have become dazzling at it... but I can't even begin to play 
anything else...
sad really.
