Just noticed that I'm missing quit a lot of files.. Actually 11 144 of them! Must have done one of those famous 'rm -rf *' which I indiscriminatly do all the time (not anymoe) in the wrong place.
Managed to find out with the program 'recover', tip from linux journal sept. issue that this happende 24 October at 01:33:15, at which time the machine was not turned on by the way. Anyway, I now have those files all "rescued", but they all have names like dump1243052 dump16725 dump490626 dump82075 dump997894 dump1243053 dump16726 dump490628 dump82076 dump997895 dump1243054 dump16727 dump490629 dump82077 dump997896 dump1243055 dump16728 dump490630 dump82078 dump997897 is there anyway that I can extract the filenames of these? I know how to use like grep and managed to find the most important latex-files and eps-files, but the rest.... Any tips? And don't mention BACKUP!!!
