I had many files in a folder in which I accidentally ran rm *
before interrupting.
It looks like files starting with a, b, and c are gone, but I am not sure, as I didn't know the name of all the files.
Can I rely on that rm
works alphabetically so that I can know exactly which files that have been removed?
Off topic a bit, but if you are looking to recover the files you can use TestDisk or the solutions given in Where do files go when the rm command is issued?
