Can the Desktop file be remade while saving the finder info
comments?  My HD20 desktop file is now over 400K (I am using a
bit under 7M of the 20M).  I have used Resedit to look at the
Desktop file, and there are many now-unused icons that could be
purged.  However, if I remake the desktop, I'll also lose all of
the info comments.  Are they in a resource that I could copy out
with Resedit, and then paste back in following the remake?

Thanks for any help,
Andy
