Back in the previous century, and likely into the first decade of this one, text files would 'automatically' back-up to a sort of limbo (purgatory) on your hard drive. And if you screwed up and accidentally erased a file, you could go digging around in the unchartered waters of your HardDrive and likely find the copy from just before you stupidly deleted the file.
