DFSee version 9.07 released today

February 22, 2008 by Jan van Wijk

++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++

From: Jan van Wijk

This is a minor release adding better control over variable substitution in
scripts and on the commandline. It fixes a bug with live updating LVM on
OS/2 and has a few small enhancements.


DFSee is a very powerful disk-utility with disk partitioning, filesystem
and disk analysis, file recovery, UNDELETE for HPFS, JFS, and NTFS,
resizing and smart imaging or cloning.


Note that the OS/2 executable is now NOT compresed anymore (just like the
Linux version). You can compress it yourself using the LXLITE program if
you wish, but that destroys the BLDLEVEL info.
