Don't lose SC's connection profiles when installing new EBF

It would be nice if I didn't have to re-setup all my connection profiles
after I install a new EBF in 9.0.2. I just installed ebf 3249, and it
lost my connection profiles, as have most of the previous ebfs.

What platforms is this happening on? Is it only *NIX platforms, or windoze
as well?

I don't have connection profiles, and never install EBFes (why would I when
I can just copy the binaries directly from the build machine?), so I've
never seen this happen...

I'm using windows XP. I have no idea if it does it with *X platforms.
I use connection profiles all the time, and I know Breck does as well,
but haven't seen him mention this issue.

That is a PITA, and a very good suggestion.

All your connection profiles are stored in the "%ASANYSH9%\Sybase Central
4.3\.scRepository" file, so for now, I'd suggest something like the
following to get around the problem

find "ConnectionProfiles" "%ASANYSH9%\Sybase Central 4.3\.scRepository" >
connpro.txt
-- Remove top two lines from connpro.txt
-- Apply EBF
type connpro.txt >> "%ASANYSH9%\Sybase Central 4.3\.scRepository"
