+ddrescue-gui (GUI for ddrescue)
+
+DDRescue-GUI is a program designed to make it easier to use GNU ddrescue (A Command-Line data recovery tool).
+It provides a simple graphical method for using ddrescue.
+This is designed to be as user-friendly as possible so users new to Linux can use ddrescue easily.
+
+DDRescue-GUI is a simple GUI written in Python 2 designed to make the data recovery tool, ddrescue, easier for beginners to use.
+It's designed for Linux, and more recently Apple OS X, as KDiskRescue appears to be abandoned, with the last update in 2006.
+DDRescue-GUI is desgined to look native on almost all Desktop Environments, so whichever one you use, it should look familiar.
+
+DDRescue-GUI uses very few rescources, with the current version using about 38MB RAM, and <80MHz CPU power
+so it'll run on almost any system, and give you the best battery life possible on laptops.
