I am posting this for a friend of mine who doesn't have access to USENET, so please respond directly to mlevin@jade.tufts.edu. I am at wit's end... I have Ultrix 4.1 running on a VaxStation II/RC. I had a file, called a.doc. By mistake, I did "cp b.doc a.doc". I am now desperate to get a.doc back. Is this possible? I know on DOS PCs, there is a utility to get back deleted files (provided you haven't actually written anything over them yet). What can I do to get as much of a.doc back as possible? I REALLY REALLY need it back! Please help. Mike Levin (mlevin@jade.tufts.edu)
