Arkadiusz,

  I saw them. What's the point?

Vitaliy,

  I beg to differ about time proving anything -- raw text files are also proven
by time they work great, while registry idea taken from Windows is ekhem, not
so great. And the idea, and running time is much longer than registry files.
  (Even XML files would be better because there are variety of tools to manage
XML, while for .reg files is one guaranteed tool -- regedit).

About regedit script mode, thank you for the tip, I will look for some manual
-- I don't have any in unix sense on my system, regedit --help does not work,
there is not a word about scripting on regedit wiki page, maybe not too
"unixish", but I'll keep looking (just for clarification I am looking for
automatically applying diff between two registry files and then how to patch
them -- i.e. how to apply difference file to one of them).
