Once you have deleted a file, it is generally gone and unrecoverable. If you happen to be using a transactional filesystem, recovery might not be so difficult. Otherwise, if, immediately after removing a file you unmount the filesystem on which it was located without writing any new data to any other file on that filesystem, you might be able to search the free list for that filesystem for blocks that had been assigned to the file you deleted; but how you do that, if it is possible at all, varies considerably based on the filesystem type.

gldeletetextures
GLDELETETEXTURES(3G) GLDELETETEXTURES(3G)
NAME
glDeleteTextures - delete named textures
C SPECIFICATION
void glDeleteTextures( GLsizei n,
const GLuint *textures )
PARAMETERS
n Specifies the number of textures to be deleted.
textures Specifies an array of textures to be deleted.
DESCRIPTION
glDeleteTextures deletes n textures named by the elements of the array textures. After a texture is deleted, it has no contents or dimen-
sionality, and its name is free for reuse (for example by glGenTextures). If a texture that is currently bound is deleted, the binding
reverts to 0 (the default texture).
glDeleteTextures silently ignores 0's and names that do not correspond to existing textures.
NOTES
glDeleteTextures is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glDeleteTextures is executed between the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of
glEnd.
