As most gnucash users will attest with some annoyance, gnucash also
writes out log files in ascii, tab-separated format. These logs contain
every deletion/addition/change. In theory, they can be used to reconstruct
some damaged sessions, but currently there are no tools that do so.
Note also, that gnucash automatically creates backup copies of the main data file,
so as long as you don't erase these, you'll have lots of backups.
