Does this count? http://recover.sourceforge.net/unix/


Oh boy, that's a clear minus point for reiserfs..




Um, all the Unix filesystems (ext2, ext3, ReiserFS, XFS, JFS, UFS) have
no undelete stuff.



There was a program I used to use with ext2 before ext3 was big. I can't remember what it was called. You would add a 'LD_PRELINK' environment variable pointing at its dynamic lib that would override the unlink() function and move files into a protected environment. You could then run the associated utility to recover them. Also, it came with an *actual* ext2 undelete program that worked pretty well.


I believe you're referring to libtrash, http://m-arriaga.net/software/libtrash/ . Not for me, but interesting idea.

I was slightly wrong with my description. It doesn't move the file, but allows for easy recovery with the original filename. Its called e2undel. http://e2undel.sourceforge.net/
