This is rather impressive. I just did a search and came up with this. Have
you ever used midnight commander? I never knew this was available!

mc cd /#undel:hda3

I tested this on a filesystem (/tmp). After creating a file, running sync,
and then deleteing the file, I ran mc with the above arg and the partition
for /tmp. I was able to find the filename and copy the file to another
filesystem on another partition. The file was very short, but it worked!

I think this is something for the LUGOD FAQ!
