Requesting a guidelines to use DDrescue Gui

Sorry, at the moment there are no tutorials or help pages. :(

At one point I did mean to get round to it, but I've always had other things that need to be done first, unfortunately.
At the moment, I don't plan to or have time to write some proper documentation, but in itself, the GUI should (hopefully!) be fairly simple to use: at various points, it offers advice if needed to try and help you get started, and help you avoid problems.

The main reason I haven't written documantation is that ddrescue (the commandline data recovery program, for which ddrescue-gui is a frontend) is quite an advanced tool, and data recovery is quite technical and complicated, the assumption so far has been that the users who are likely to need this tool should have a good understanding of how to use it already, and so documentation would be pointless, or at least very low-priority.

Anyway, back to the point: there is no documentation for ddrescue-gui, but I'm willing to help you here, or send you a link to some documentation for ddrescue itself, which should help your understanding of this program too :)

By the way, I'm currently working on a new version, 1.4, which should make the program easier to use, and it should help you avoid more common pitfalls.

Sorry about this, but hopefully it will help,
Hamish

Having thought about it for a bit, I may implement some help documentation in the form of a 'tip of the day' type thing.

It'll probably be for version 1.4 (in active development), or 1.5 (which may run on python 3, depending on when wxpython phoenix is considered stable).

Thanks for the idea,
Hamish
