The version is 0.0.6.4 This version introduces
numerous performance enhancements including a
new DMA allocator, cached writes and several
other improvements including: invalid pad
termination on the B64/B32 decoder/parsers,
where an invalid padding sequence at the end
of the encoded file is now immediately detected,
instead of having to perform a linear scan of
the file. When all offsets are matched within
a -p or -u [] construct newer code was made to
terminate the sequence instead of having to scan
for any unmatched offsets. Fixed a minor bug
in the -c option when both files are identical
in size, but one or more offsets differ; it pro-
duced a shorter by error prompt for one of the
files. Added a new "fast copy" routine accessed
from the commandline via the new -k option. This
new copying mechanism allows copying one or more
files to a destination very quickly, while the files
are not translated during the operation; this may
change in a future release; i.e., convert and copy
a file. Speeds exceeding 22 MB/sec on sustained
writes are achievable on modern hardware. A new
"yes" option (-y), has been added to fdump, that allows
for now, the -k switch to overwrite existing files.
Clustering of the -k{y} switches is also supported.
These are the new features added to version 0.0.6.4
over the prior release 0.0.6.3
