.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
MINIX allows files that have been deleted (e.g., with \fIrm\fR) to be
|
|
restored (in \fI/tmp\fR).
|
|
The trick is that when a file is unlinked, its i-node number is kept in
|
|
the directory entry.
|
|
As long as the directory entry and disk blocks are not reused, the file
|
|
can be recovered.
|
|
This program is actually just a little front end for \fIde\fR, which must be
|
|
installed as a set-uid root executable.
