Exhume Flies
(Works only with ProDOS 1.4 and later!)
This function attempts to restore files which have been deleted,
provided the file has not been overwritten.
To use the exhume utility:
Enter the pathname where the deleted file ~a&
• All deleted files which can be detected will be displayed. If
the file you need is not displayed, check that you are in the
right directory. If the file does not display, it can not be
recovered with this function.
•
Use arrow keys/mouse to move highlighter to select the file(s)
to un-delete and the space bar/mouse to select them.
• Pressing RETURN will attempt the un-delete.
It might be helpful to describe the principle EXHUME works on.
When a file is deleted from a disk it really isn’t. What is deleted
is part of the file’s name. This deletion tells the operating sys-
tem it is all right to use the space formally used by the deleted
file to store new files. What all this means is the ability of EX-
HUME to work depends on whether new information has been
stored to the drive since the old file was erased. If you know you
have accidentally deleted a file(s) DON’T SAVE ANY NEW
DATA until you have tried to recover the file(s) deleted! If other
data gets stored in the middle of the old file, a FILE DAMAGED
error will display when you try to exhume the old file.
