There were a couple of programs around, either freeware or shareware. 
One was called FIP; I have an archive file FIP.LZH, but I don't 
remember if I rearchived and renamed it. You could try an Altavista 
search for fip*  The one I looked at dates from 1995.

I'd always make a backup before using any of these utilities.
