Hey guys,
May I suggest you guys take a look/put this little program on all your machines/usb sticks. Its a portable program that lets you read your Ext drives from windows. Super handy! and easy to use before you nuke.

Now you tell me about this!! Would’ve come in handy last Saturday.
Thank you for another good episode of mintCast.
Like other listeners that provide feedback recommending software, I need to make an amendment to my recommendation for “tedia2sql”.
“tedia2sql” is partially broken and is no longer supported by its developer.
Fortunately another project has taken the lead and provides the means to generate SQL from a Dia diagram file. The perl name for the project is Parse::Dia::SQL and is in CPAN. Ubuntu provides a package for this utility under the name of “libparse-dia-sql-perl”.
The command line utility for “lib-parse-dia-sql-perl” is “parsediasql” and has similar syntax to “tedia2sql”. “parsediasql” supports more databases than “tedia2sql”. It supports generating SQL for SQLite3 databases.
To learn more about how to build a Dia diagram to use with “parsediasql”, you will still need to use the documentation for “tedia2sql” which can be found at:
