Hi Murray,

ML>    IMO, every OS/2 user should have a program that cleans up the
ML>.INI files and all the other "handle" information that is left
ML>behind when object files are deleted from the system.  I use
ML>UniMaint v 5.10.02 (a shrink-wrapped program) ........

I don't mind the cost of useful programs but trying to buy any OS/2
programs here will fail.

ML>  But, I am told that there are many other programs that clean up
ML>the two .INI files, some of which are freeware.  I suggest that you
ML>look into it.

Yes I will. I'll start with an inventory of my BBS ;-)

ML>    "Uninstall" programs are notorious for being short-sighted.  The
ML>one that comes with UniMaint includes special warnings to the user,

So does the programs that come with Hank Kelder's WPTOOL suite.
If I don't find anything else, I might end up using them.

Happy Holidays,

Holger
