Well:
1) You cannot undelete files under Unices.
2) You cannot undelete files under Unices.
3) You cannot undelete files under Unices.
2) You can make a very little script, eg:
$ cat /bin/myrm
#!/usr/local/bin/ksh
mkdir $HOME/.trashcan 2>/dev/null
for i
do
j=${i%%[!/]*}
j=${j##$HOME}
mkdir -p $HOME/.trashcan/$j 2>/dev/null
mv ${i##$HOME} $HOME/.trashcan/$j
done
or something like this (Hey! I just write it, and didn't make any test in
it, so BEWARE!)
3) If I remember well, somewhere in past, there were something named Project
Athena, and if I'm right, there were something named undelete in it. Search
for it somewhere in the net. Maybe archie?
Bye, Gabor
