I didn't see the original of this message.  If what was needed is a
way to clean out the unused junk (bundles, icons, etc.) in the
DeskTop, I have a program (public-domain) in LSC which does a pretty
good job.  I can E-mail it to people, or will post it to
comp.mac.sources (and comp.mac.binaries) if there is sufficient
interest.
  If you're interested, mail me at rang@cpsvax.cps.msu.edu.
