Message-ID: <6047@cit-vax.Caltech.Edu> Date: 8 Apr 88 11:33:53 GMT Sender: news@cit-vax.Caltech.Edu Reply-To: xiaohe@tybalt.caltech.edu (Xiao-He Zhang) Organization: California Institute of Technology Lines: 20 I had a very bad luck tonight: after I SCCS'ed my source files in a directory, I wiped out all of them including the SCCS directory! Can any one give me some clue as what went wrong? mkdir SCCS ls *.f > file sccs enter `cat file` sccs edit `cat file` ls ls ,*.f rm ,*.f ls Now nothing is left! But everything was normal up to "ls ,*.f". The machine is a SUN 3/50 runing UNIX BSD 4.2. Thank you very much in advance! Xiao-He Zhang || xiaohe@tybalt.caltech.edu | xiaohe@caltech.bitnet
