DAR_CP(1)							     DAR_CP(1)

NAME
       dar_cp  - 'cp' clone command that is able to copy data located after an
       I/O error

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,  filling
       the gaps by zeroed bytes.

       dar_cp only accepts full filename (not directory) as argument. The rea‐
       son 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.

OPTIONS
       -h		   Displays help usage.

       -V		   Displays version information.

EXIT CODES
       dar_cp exists with the following codes:

       0	 upon normal execution (be some corrupted  parted  skipped  or
		 not)

       2	 could not open source or destination files

       3	 any other system error met during the copy

       5	 when some data could not be copied due to I/O error

SIGNALS
       Any  signal sent to dar_cp will abort the program immediately, there is
       no way to have a proper termination before the end of the process
