NAME
dar_cp - disk archive copy
SYNOPSIS
dar_cp <source file> <destination
file> dar_cp -h dar_cp -V
DESCRIPTION
dar_cp is similar to the standard 'cp'
command, except it does not stop copying when an I/O error is met.
Instead, it skips a bit further and continues to copy the rest of
the file, as much as possible.
dar_cp only accepts full filename (not directory) as
argument. The reason of its existence in dar package is that you
need it if you use Parchive with dar and have a corruption on a
CD-R or any other read-only medium. You need to copy the corrupted
slice on a read-write filesystem, for Parchive be able to repair it
using slice associated redundancy files.
