About giis-gui:
==========
huhh...and finally an UI for giis tool.I have been trying UI for this messy tool for three years of failed attempts with JNI and then with some PHP.
Though I thought I completed the UI using zenity,but I decided to give GTK+ and Glade one final try,now i got it ;) 

About giis:
==========
gET iT i sAY.giis is a text based file recovery tool.Once you install giis,files on your disk can be recovered using giis.
But Those files which deleted before the installation giis can't be recovered using giis.User has the option to choose directories too.
Add only those directories where you will store important data.(adding directories like /tmp gives giis overhead and installation 
will take long time).It can recovers a deleted file and restores in it's original directory,if path exists.It recovers dropped 
database tables.

Minimum the directories you choose will increases the giis performance.
**Need to Update?
giis is updated every 20 minutes. To update giis manually try giis -u so that all newly created files and folder get eligible for recovery.
See INSTALL file for more.

Note : giis is an admin tool.So the user should have root user rights to execute it.

How to install:
==============

Support - the missing part
==========================
Your donations will make a __huge__ difference and will allow me to write more application for free :)
I have tried few open source funding organizations and placed online ads but no luck.So if you like this tool and 
would like me to write more softwares (yeah,I have lot of ideas but stuck in life)then consider donation or sponsership.
