═══ 1. Introduction ═══ ConfigEdit/2 Welcome to ConfigEdit/2. A (not so) simple configuration system for the OS/2 config.sys. ConfigEdit/2 will allow you to auto-generate config.sys files from a Data Base of commands. These commands can be either written by hand or imported from an existing config.sys file. It can also manage OS/2's Recovery Choices, run Tyra/2 on the generated configuration and even get detailed information on every config.sys command. Please read the General Information for important info. ═══ 2. General Information ═══ General Information The first thing you need to do is Import (Ctrl-I) your current config.sys and any other config files that you may be using. Remember to Save (Ctrl-S) the Data Base. After you create your Data Base, you can drag-drop whole folders or just parts of them to the Config View. Once the Config View has the items that you want, you can Generate (Ctrl-G) your new config.sys file. You can also use your own editor, but remember that you won't be able to open multiple items. You can only edit one item at a time. Also by double-clicking on any config.sys command, you can get detailed information about it. Please read the History information for changes from older versions. I would be very much interested in comments and suggestions for improvement! Thank you for trying ConfigEdit/2. ═══ 3.
