Hi @brianpow, Before we go through code review, could you describe the use case that this pull request intends to help? It doesn't need to be formal or long, I'm...

Having `f3read --delete` does add meaning to `f3write --keep`. I'm going to work with you to review the code and merge it. Let's start making this pull request coherent. First,...

I'm going to leave this pull request open, so someone else can pick it up if the need for it comes. Good luck on your new project!

Hi @efa, `f3brew` writes and reads directly to a block device. I haven't documented it because the only use I've found for it is to help to figure out what...

Using `f3brew` on the entire drive instead of a single partition would destroy the partition table. While I see your point that testing block devices directly is a more complete...

A pull request to add documentation is welcome.

Your interpretation of the code is correct: `f3probe` assumes that sector wrapping in fake drives is a power of 2. An explanation of the algorithm would be nice to have,...
