The Maverick Utilities includes a program to do just this.  I used it
once to recover a disk with a corrupted directory.  It also recovered
previously deleted files and pieces of files.  As I recall, it named
the files it found as F1, F2, etc.  Also, you may have to edit the file
type after the recovery.  I believe all recovered files were recreated
as prg files, so other file types would have to be modified to the correct
type.

Hope this helps.
