+ext4magic 0.3.0 pv0 Contains the first experimental version of the magic function for ext4
+ The magic function for ext4 in this version can restore deleted files which
+ consisted of more than 4 extents (includes extra large and sparse files)
+ and also files that are unfragmented. (most small and medium-sized files
+ and many large files, are often unfragmented)
+
+ This version can not recover files with 2 to 4 extents. But it's prepared and
+ will be possible in later versions for some file types.
+
+ Depending of the file type, different methods for recovery are used.
+ For most file types specific functions have been developed.
+
+ Supported the most important file formats for:
+ file archivs, compressed file, a lot off video-, audio- and picture formats,
+ ELF-binary format, Mail, PDF, a lot of text-based file formats, and much more.
+
+ Tested are more than 50 file formats and if available, also possible
+ variants and subtypes.
+ Possible, this version will work well for you, possible also, it does not work.
+ There is a lot of new and experimental code.
+
+ The magic-function for ext3 is switched off in this version. For ext3 use
+ ext4magic 0.2.2
