Directions:
Just boot SafeNANDManager and press A.
It will dump a nand.bin with nocash footer to your dsi at 
DT010203040A0B0C0D/nand.bin
The folder will be next to wherever you put dumpTool.nds. And obviously, your foldername will have different characters. It's console-unique.
You can also restore a different but still console-unique nand.bin

General Info:
This tool should create a nand.bin identical to fwTool.nds 2.0. The same holds true for its nand.bin.sha1 file as well.
If this isn't the case in your neck of the woods, please make an issue :)
(note that identical nands can only occur if both app's output are compared in the same hbmenu session; booting to dsi home menu in between will undoubtably change NAND contents)

Features:
- Completely open source.
- Lots of checks, including verifying the nocash footer will decrypt the outputed NAND. Low battery and insufficient SD space are also checked.
- Project has a permissive license, and more importantly, its dev is permissive. I don't care what's done with this post-release as long as credit is given.
- Simple operation. Just press A to dump, or Y to restore, and watch it go.
- You can cancel the dump in progress. The incomplete nand will be cleaned up.
- A little bit faster than fwTool. Should complete in about 7 minutes. NAND restore may take longer.
