My mistakeas my answer wasnt clear.., cards are gone but books still there.....
Like most filing systems, even normal hard disk. The data doesnt get
deleted.
Just the index.
Its one of the ways they rolled up a drug smugglers operation years
ago as they had their data/addresses in a Psion organiser.
They managed to delete the data but that didnt mean it wasnt there...
Its also the reason that when a filing system gets a problem the
sooner fixed the better as one can reorder a few mislaid cards by
checking where they belong but if you dump the box on the floor you
got a life long job...
well known example is the scandisk or equivalent wanting to check
your disk after a bad shutdown. Let it do it. Just zap what it says is
mixed up. Normally all is ok after that as all that gets zapped are
incomplete files. if you donot and it gets reused in places where the
OS thinks there is no data you get a real problem...
