RE: [libreoffice-users] Re: help recovering?

Oh wait,

I have a bad feeling about this.  

You don't still have the Kwrite file?  You took the Kwrite file into LibreOffice and started to 
edit it?  Did it ever get save as a different file, or did you save it atop the Kwrite file, with 
the original no-file-extension name?

I'd like to see that too.

The list won't transfer attachments.  But you can send it as an attachment to me directly.  I am 
very curious what beast that is.

Thanks for making a stab at this Tom.

Here is the file.  Was saved as a common text file originally with 
Kwrite so it had no file extension.
Subsequently I got more complex with it and started edit it in 
LibreOffice.  So I have to assume it saved as an .odt file, but the 
extension was never shown.
