~30 years ago:
- Insert floppy disk into PC's Drive A: and boot DOS
- Insert Borland TurboPascal floppy disk into PC's Drive B: and run the Turbo Pascal IDE
- Edit program in IDE, save source code on C: drive folder
- Compile, Run, Test and repeat
- Swap out boot disk from Drive A:
- Insert data disk in Drive A:
- Copy sources from C: to A:
- Delete the files in C:
- Format another data disk (accidentally destroying the sources backed up in earlier step)
- Panic and look for Norton Utilities and run it to recover the source files from Drive C:
Fun times.
