Description _ gtzabari 2002-08-28 03:41:00 UTC 
A fellow OS/2 user recently pointed out there
is no way to update his OS/2 startup script
without downloading the entire distribution (23MB).

   Is this OS/2 specific or do all other platforms
support from the same inability? Can we add this
"feature" into the Auto-Update module?

Thanks,
Gili

Ales, you are working on something like this fro 4.0, am I right?
Comment 2 akemr 2002-09-27 10:11:40 UTC 
I thought it's possible on Unix to replace running script.
Could you please confirm it? Just add changed netbeans/bin/runide.sh
to some nbm, run AU, install it manually, restart, shutdown IDE. If
script is changed, everything is OK.
Thanks.

If it doesn't work, I'll mark it as duplicate:
there is already filled ENHANCEMET #24361 (Overwrite launcher files on
Windows)
