Data loss while restoring .tgz archives

[Olivier Fourdan]

Thomas,

Actually, I did not say that xftree was responsible for your data loss.

I was just saying that using a file manager to copy sensible data is a
bad idea, generally speaking.

IMO, the only reliable tool for copying sensible data is "cp"

Cheers,
Olivier.
