Use UNDELETE.  If you want UNERA, make a DOSKEY macro for it, or a
batchfile, or use 4DOS and aliases.  There are many simple solutions
that don't require creating a new program.  Since UNDELETE is an
external program and symlinks don't exist in DOS, it would require a
new EXE to do the same thing as UNDELETE.

Good luck.
