Reset ECE Solaris/Linux Defaults

About

The "resetenv" command will load a default set of "dot files" that use modules.

Usage

Usage:

resetenv [--gdm] [--purge] [--help]

From any Linux or Solaris machine run the command:

/usr/local/bin/resetenv

You will be prompted to reset your environment back to the ECE defaults, type '1' to accept. If you run it a second time you will notice you will be prompted to either reset to defaults or to pick a state to restore back to if you do not like the default files.
