Midnight Commander also has a tab for recovery, but does not say
anywhere how
you do it.

Later
If you type mc in a terminal you get midnight commander, then select Command , then Undelete files (ext2 only) you get a field where you type /#undel:hda(n) where (n) is the number of the partition that has the deleted files on it.
you then get ,
Undelfs:loading deleted files info-
It then checks through all the inodes on the patition looking for the deleted files and makes a copy to a new directory /#undel , only it takes so long I could not wait for it to finish.
