Restoring a file
I'm new to Unix and have just wrote a little program to move files to a recycle bin (a Directory i created) and restore them. The problem is that i need to keep track of all the full filenames so that i can restore them to the right place. I did this by creating a file called delreg and putting the full filenames in it.
But i don't know how to write the full filename to the file or for that matter how to restore the file. My code so far looks like this
pwd >> /home/zoolz/delreg
$1 >> /home/zoolz/delreg
But this code only puts it on 2 lines.
Please if anyone can help it would be great because i seem to be banging my head against a wall

iptables-restore and ip6tables-restore are used to restore IP and IPv6 Tables from data specified on STDIN or in file. Use I/O redirection
provided by your shell to read from a file or specify file as an argument.
-c, --counters
restore the values of all packet and byte counters
-h, --help

-v, --verbose
Print additional debug info during ruleset processing.
