How to keep preferences files in sync

[frankzen]

Whenever I compile and install a new version I don't know how to ensure any new keys are in my local preferences file. Is there a relatively easy way to do this? I have a lot of modified preferences in my local version. Thanks

icewm --rewrite-preferences

Keep a backup of what you had, so you can compare and decide if you like the result.
