- Update to 2.3.1:
* fixed Makefile bug! Running make uninstall removed target bin directory.
From 2.3:
* the default is now one single random pass <-- MAJOR CHANGE
* special files are no longer deleted by default
* support for wiping char devices, such as tape drives
* percentage reporting improved (thanks to Jason Tackaberry for patch)
* cleanup and exit upon SIGINT
* each wiped file prints on a seperate line
* skip unnecessary fdatasync()s, unless you want the extra accuracy on the %
shown (-e option)
* call fsync() on the file after name wipe, in addition to fsync on the
directory
* if fdatasync() fails, try for O_SYNC and only complain once per file
* fixed some off-by-ones
