RECOVER(1)						      General Commands Manual							RECOVER(1)

NAME

       recover - recover files that have been removed.

SYNOPSIS

       recover file ...

EXAMPLES

       rm x; recover x	   # Unremove x

       recover a b c	   # Recover three files

DESCRIPTION

       MINIX  allows files that have been deleted (e.g., with rm) to be restored (in /tmp).  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 de, which must be installed as a set-uid root executable.

SEE ALSO

       de(9).
