Unless you have some way of undeleting them, your .c files are gone for
good.  However, you can extract .o files from a library the same way you
put them in:  with 'ar'.  Here's the command:

ar xv libmylib.a [files...]

If you don't provide the filenames to extract with the 'x' command, ar
extracts them all by default.
