: I saw a very nice util on the Archimedies that could be configured with a 
: particular set of file attributes, and then any files who's icons were dragged 
: onto it, would have their attributes set to those off the utils. config.. Ie, 
: this could be used to clear the raed only flag of any file dropped on it. Is 
: there a util for OS/2 to do this, any more to the point it would be nice if a 
: future OS/2 included this.

	if you set up an os/2 session to run the os/2 attrib program
(probably in boot:\os2) and set exacly the attributes that you want in
the parameters section of the session setup, you CAN drag files (and i
assome directorys...) to it and have their attributes set (hint: have
the prog start minimized, and make sure it closes on exit)
