RE: DOS based registry libAs far as I can tell, in DOS, regedit just lets
you import and export registry files. I guess I could export part of the
registry, work on that file, then import it again. Not exactly what I was
looking for*. I need to be able to work directly with the registry. You
can't delete keys by importing .reg files. Thanks anyway.

* To clarify, I want to write a DOS based registry cleaner & editor.

Regedit works from dos.  Type
regedit.exe /?
For options.
See "windows 95 in a nutshell" for more info.
This along with the system( ) function could satisfy your needs.

I know this is a long shot, but ... are there any libraries out there to
access the Windows registry from DOS? I've found some Win32 libs, but I want
to try to write a DOS based registry editor with DJGPP.
