Description:
------------
  copyblock is a very simple command line tool which can work in 2 ways.

1) it reads from a regular file or a block device and writes to stdout, it can
detect zeroed areas and write sparse files, maximum read size can be specified
(useful when reading block devices containing iso filesystem)

2) it reads from stdin and write to a block device or regular file, sync write
can be forced (useful when writing into slow devices and wanting to have good
progress and eta)

In both modes "copyblock" writes to stderr info about progress and estimated
time to complete.

Files and block devices larger then 4GB are supported.

I have tested it on Linux (i386 and x86_64) and on NetBSD (i386)
