Hi Pádraig,
I'm not sure that this function will behave quite as you intended it to:
+sub getlimits()
+{

+ my %limits = map {split /=|\n/} NV;
+ return

I would like to discuss the addition of some sort of progress bar in dd.
When I'm low-level formatting hard drives with:
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda bs=10M conv=notrunc
It'd be nice to know the progress of the operation. The same goes for
cloning hard drives.
Is it possible for dd to know
