Re: ubuntu-users Digest, Vol 23, Issue 317

Hi everyone,

I know that this isn't complete Ubuntu question, but....
I am have quite a time of this project: I just want to have a shell
script simpley dump the contents of a text file into the keyboard buffer so
that it mimics keyboard input.
I can't figure out what the device is in Ubuntu(Dapper) or I can't figure
out how to correctly send it to the appropriate device.

Can anyone help out?
Thanks,
Lee

Try opening the wastebasket and copying it back out.

Has nothing to do with windows style 'undelete' utilities...

assuming you used 'rm' (and didn't just put it in the trash)
I *think* the file is still 'there' by inode number while totem has it
open.
The trick would be figuring out the inode number.
lsof | grep totem tell you anything?
If you could come up with the inode number of the file while it's still
around
you could just cp it to a new file name.

FWIW
Brian

thanks for your answer. but it was an absolute deletion (using
<shift>Del ). So it didn't go in the wastebasket.

If you deleted from the windowing environment, chances are it was just
moved to the Trash / Waste Basket. So just open the waste basket and
restore it from there.

If you did a "rm" from shell, it's extremely hard to recover with
conventional tools... you can consider it lost.
