Hi, about 40 mins ago I removed all of the files in
/mit/6.111/handouts/labs/lab4/f91/
I share rwx permissions in the 6.111 locker with Profs. Kirtley and Troxel.
And I really need to have everything which was in there (and which
probably hadn't been touched for at least a week) before I deleted it,
put back. I hope this is on a tape or disk somewhere and can be done.
It is not "time critical" but it is very important to have these files.
I think the files which were in there are called:
circuits.tex lab4f91.tex lab4.tex sources.tex transstr.tex
--------------------------------
If you want to know what I did, here's the explanation:
I have an alias which goes like this:
rmL 'rm *.dvi *.log *~ .*~'
Normally I'm sitting in the subdirectory and then I blast that command
(to clean things up so as to not hog disk space, etc.)
But this time I tried to nuke it from a distance by:
rmL /mit/6.111/handouts/labs/lab4/f91/
but that didn't work so I did the following (and nailed all of the files
there):
rmL /mit/6.111/handouts/labs/lab4/f91/*
[It's been that kind of day.]
