- Subject: Equivalent of recycle bin?
Hello, I messed up royally today when I was merging two bash scripts.
When I was going to test if my argument handling worked I had forgot to
comment out a call to "rm -f" that took a relative path and since the
script wasn't executed where it was supposed to it removed several
files. Many of those are easily replaced but some were source files that
have been modified the past months and the last backup was from july
23rd 2007. =/
I know I should robustify my script but I was wondering if there's an
equivalent of the recycle bin I can use so I can easily restore files
that were not supposed to be deleted?
