virecover —
virecover utility sends emails to users who have
  vi(1) recovery files.
This email gives the name of the file that was saved for recovery
    and instructions for recovering most, if not all, of the changes to the
    file. This is done by using the -r option with
    vi(1). See the
    -r option in
    vi(1) for details.
If the backup files have the execute bit set or are zero length,
    then they have not been modified, so virecover
    deletes them to clean up. virecover also removes
    recovery files that are corrupted, zero length, or do not have a
    corresponding backup file.
virecover is normally run automatically at
    boot time using /etc/rc.d/virecover.
recover.script, is from
  nvi and was added to NetBSD in 1996. It was renamed in
  2001.
