Anyone know where to get a copy of the Universal Resource Editor? http://www.edm2.com/index.php/New_Tool:_Universal_Resource_Editor (http://www.edm2.com/index.php/New_Tool:_Universal_Resource_Editor)

Search for URE on hobbes from here http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-browse.php?dir=/pub/os2/dev/pm (http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-browse.php?dir=/pub/os2/dev/pm).

AFAIK the same (older version?) is bundled with Visual Age C/C++ compilers named IRE.

Usually it was shipped with The Developer Connection for OS/2. It's also inside the BETA folder of the "Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 4".

I think the most up to date version is the one on hobbes.

So you're talking about the fixes from August 1998 (http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/os2/dev/pm/urefix.zip (http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/os2/dev/pm/urefix.zip)). The last fixes from Toolkit for Warp 4 are dated 1998-04-27.

If you have the URE installed, then this Rexx script can be used to delete a >2 KiB OS2.INI entry, which a.o. seems to refer to the temporary install directory of the URE (unverified):

Code: [Select]
/**/
CALL RxFuncAdd 'SysIni','RexxUtil','SysIni'
CALL SysIni 'USER','URE.Install','DELETE:'
EXIT
