  17. S> It restores the os2.ini, os2sys.ini and config.sys files from the
  18. S> C:\os2\install directory where they are put at install time, to the C:\os2
  19. S> directory where they are used. The effect of this is to return the OS/2
  20. S> desktop to the default.
  21.  
  22. If the files come from c:\o2\install, couldn't you just modify the
  23. files there to be a working, but later than initial install, version?
  24. This would keep you from having to start everything from scratch each
  25. time you tried something new and screwed up.
