(Easily) saving copy logs

[cknowlesuk]

Is there any simple way to copy the info shown while copying a disk to a text file or similar automatically? Ideally every time I image a disk, I'd like to save something showing where sectors read well/failed to read, and the total # of successful sectors (and probably ideally the command/flags I used to create the image too), and store that alongside the disk image I'm creating. I'm currently running gw from powershell. Can certainly beleive there's some trivial way to do this that I'm just missing!

I would like that too, but without further development, how automation would know when you are starting or done... In Powershell closest thing I imagine is:

Start-Transcript -Path "C:\GW\CopiedDisk1.log"

and when operation is done then

Stop-Transcript

then again

Start-Transcript -Path "C:\GW\CopiedDisk2.log"

and so on.

In normal Command Prompt (CMD) maybe it would be easier to copypaste command, flags and results in Notepad and save it or take a screenshot with Alt Gr+Print Screen, paste it in Paint and save as .png or use more advanced program like Snagit to identidy window and screenshot its content.

In GW log wise what I have always missed is summary of retries needed for 100% read. So you would have some info to save about last known condition of the disk/data and how close you are in need to start making a new disk to replace the one that needed a little bit too many retries.
