DiskSalv V1.40 fixes two main bugs in V1.32: a bug in the processing
of logical vs. physical volumes which caused the file size checking to
get switched off at the wrong times, and incorrect handling of
circular directories, which would usually result in a crash during the
scanning process.
DiskSalv V1.40 is better about fragmenting RAM and uses much less
stack memory. The FORMAT option has been removed, and the START and
STOP options are more flexible.
Finally, DiskSalv has some new options: the NODOS option solves a
problem that sometimes comes up when you have a disk that can hang or
crash to OS; the FILE option allows you to specify a filename pattern
to match against during the scanning phase; and the LOMEM option drops
DiskSalv memory usage to a minimum, at the expense of some speed and
features.
