Well, how did you encrypt it in the first place? How does it usually get mounted? Magic Rescue works much the same way as Photorec -- scan every block to see if it's the start of a file -- but it's lot more sophisticated, using script-like plugins to recognize many types of files instead of recognizing a simple few hardcoded ones.
Code:
$ ls /usr/share/magicrescue/recipes
avi gimp-xcf gzip jpeg-jfif mp3-id3v2 perl zip
elf gpl jpeg-exif mp3-id3v1 msoffice png
$ cat /usr/share/magicrescue/recipes/jpeg-exif
# Extracts jpeg files with the Exif magic bytes. These usually originate from
# digital camaras or other devices.
# Depends on jpegtran from libjpeg: http://freshmeat.net/projects/libjpeg/
# See also jpeg-jfif
6 string Exif
0 int32 ffd80000 ffff0000
extension jpg
command jpegtran -copy all -outfile "$1"
$
This is also what makes it slower, since it does a lot more work on each block it reads, checking them all to see what they are.
You seem to be having lots and lots of data loss problems lately. A good backup might be an idea.
Like this when I installed Linux.
By logging in the normal way from the login menu. I don't think I should be using my system the normal way cause that will decrease the possibility of me getting my data back.
I wrote my own guide of how to decrypt an encrypted home directory. I wrote the Live CD method of opening a encrypted home directory.
The first time wasn't my fault. The second time I was stupid. I had a phone call while I was testing the rm -r command. I typed in the wrong directory while I was talking. I know I should have stopped what I was doing but I didn't.
Back the topic at hand. Should I use Magic Rescue or a different program?

It IS possible to "undelete" a file; I suppose recover would be a better term for it. I suppose we've all made the boo-boo (that we all hopefully learned from) of deleting a file, and finding that you do not have a backup. I wouldn't... (1 Reply)
I am helping a company recover a system that is SCO OS 5.0.5 - they have their backup media, cd copies of SCO, but they do not have their license keys to install and SCO is being difficult in validating their license.
Does anyone have an install license key for 5.0.5 that they would be willing... (1 Reply)

Friends,
I have accidently, as root, created a directory gabsf under /home. Now I cannot delete this thing, I have tried rm and rmdir, as well as explicit path name, but it is really undeleteable. Here is what ls -l says.
# ls -l /home
