- hehhehe, that was one of the first things I learned
- when I moved to UNIX. UNIX o does not
- have an "undelete" command. But what you can do is write a script file simler to h this and call it del
-
-
- cp %1 /delete/%1
- rm %1
-
-
- this should copy the file to /delete and then
- rm r the file. Once a week or so you go to /delete
- and carefuly type rm -r *, AND I MEAN CAREFULLY!
