FFS Fill FileSystem by coydog FFS is a freespace wiper. It is intended to improve compression of filesystem images by removing unlinked data and metadata from previously deleted files. It's not intended as a privacy tool, since things like filesystem fragmentation may prevent it from wiping everything, but it works in much the same way as many other disk wipers. FFS will write files filled containing binary zero's in the current working directory until the filesystem is full. The user is responsible for deleting the files when it is finished. FFS won't clobber existing files. Compile using cc -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -o ffs src/ffs.c or cc -o ffs ffs.c First ensure you don't have any important files named "binzero*", then run ./ffs && rm binzero* Copyright 2013 Coydog Software.
