I was hoping that you might be able to help me recover a file that I
accidentally deleted. I used rm, and there weren't any backups, so it
is permanently gone. It was my .zwgc.desc file. Maybe that doesn't sound
like a super-serious loss, but I had spent a lot of time working on it.
It was hours of effort to get it just the way I wanted it (and working in
harmony with everything else), and I just about died when I rm'ed it
accidentally. Someone told me that you might be able to restore it, so
that is why I am writing. Please could you help? Molte grazie.
Cordially,
Steven G. Johnson
P.S. It won't happen again--I'm aliasing rm to delete right away.
