+Larry Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Does anyone know of an UNDELETE program that will work with MyDos? Of course, sector editors work, but I have not found a stand-alone UNDELETE program that works correctly with MyDos. "UNDELETE.BAS" by Bruce Ramsey appears only to work with Dos 2.0 (and perhaps 2.5). Before I re-invent the wheel and write one, thought someone may have found one that is MyDos-friendly. -Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathy Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Hello Larry I haven't heard of an undelete program for MyDOS, but it shouldn't be to hard to make UNDELETE.BAS work with MyDOS. Sincerely Mathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It now handles SpartaDos, DosXE, DosXL, DOS-3 and of course MyDOS. As it's a work-in-progress, I'd rather not post it just yet... It has an UnDelete feature built-in...

Rybags Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Undelete under Dos 2.0 won't necessarily work with 2.5 since the allocation bitmap is spread over 2 sectors instead of 1. In theory an undelete that just copies the data to another disk should work though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Larry Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 Thanks, Jay. I do appreciate it, but I'm really looking for a "native" Atari application. I actually have found a Turbo Basic XL program I wrote some years ago that has a lot of the UNDELETE work already done. It won't be much hassle to convert it. But when you do finish it, I do hope you'll post it -- sounds useful. -Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Larry Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 Thanks, Russ. I had forgotten that DW2 has a file undelete, so that might be a pretty good solution. -Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
