    Actually there is little chance. The Linux command line is unforgiving.

    Here is a tool. but you must understand that anything you do now will lower your chances of recovery because the disk areas will be reused.


    Linux.com :: Bring back deleted files with lsof

    there are commercial programs also
    Linux Data Recovery Software
    note I have never used it so have no idea how well it works

    google for linux data recovery deleted

    PhotoRec can recover files of various types so you could take a look at it to see if it will work for you.
