XEST PD - Public Domain

From Austria comes the XEST or also XE series, which is more popular than its publisher: The XEST magazine from Austria, which covered both the Atari 8-bit and 16/32-bit computers in the first years. XEST debuted about the same time as the ST-Computer and lasted until 1993. The PD series is therefore characterized by the early public domain programs and the typical separation between color and b/w. The series does not have a special focus, only rarely is reference made to the magazine. The "gap" of 50 disks is intentional: 8 bit disks were part of the numbering scheme.

    This is a program to help recover files that have been accidentally deleted. It is primarily effective for finding files that contain text, rather than programs. This is because it will display the contents of a "cluster" (two sectors) on the disk, and you must look at it and determine whether that is part of your lost file; programs will usually look like garbage on the screen.
