The other day when I was working on a program, my 'vi' editor reported
an internal error, but I kept typing.  I saved the file just a minute
later, and when I next looked at the file, half of it was gone.  Using
a sector editor, I found where most of the deleted part is.  What I need
to know is how I can create a file out of the lost sectors to recover the
file.  Any help would be very appreciated!

Thanks
