- ZeroUno is a program that clears all unused sectors of a partition of
- an Exec device. It is particularly useful together with Antonio Schifano's
- compressdisk.device, to give back disk space on the device work disk after
- deleting some files on a virtual partition. Some strange people use ZeroUno
- from time to time for zeroing (!) unused sectors of hard disks subject to
- data loss, in order to let Dave Haynie's DiskSalv recover only
- the interesting files. Likewise, it might be useful to make sure none
- could be able to recover some files you deleted......
