>Description:
I find useful to be able to easily to "unlink" the symbolic links created
by 'newbtconf init' and restore as actual files (or directories hint hint :)
the currently selected configuration bits.

I added an new mode of operation for newbtconf to provide this functionality.
>How-To-Repeat:
