This little utility is more or less an act of desperation.
We are going to have to upgrade a ton of PCs from OS2 1.2
SE TO OS2 1.2 EE very shortly. If you have ever had to
do that you will have noticed that saving your installed
programs list and groups is impossible if you are already
using HPFS on the primary drive.
This utility will allow you to backup installed programs
and groups to a user ini file that can be used later to
reload the os2.ini file. In this way, you may preserve
your OS2 1.2 SE application environment. Also, if you
have a ton of installs to do (like I do) you may create
a stand user install list and mass load them to newly
installed OS2 1.2 machines.
Additionally, you may backup the entire OS2.INI and
OS2SYS.INI files.
The ink is still wet on this code. I will upload a release
that has help and an ICON when I have time. I have included
source code so you can play with it if you need to.
DISCLAIMER**********************************************
You are free to use this utility as you wish at your own
risk.
Any comments about the utility are welcome.
