I'm currently working on a rxloop script for the post rollup fixpack. This consists of a csv-style table, which is run to generate the output. A possibility is to read the [Files] section in dosnet.inf etc to get the assorted working lists. Because rxloop allows you to build scripts, you can keep the hotfixes in their original order, and select the files directly from unpacked hotfixes. At the moment, i am halfway through the rxloop table.

There are several different setup routines, some of which have registry patches. These are being saved as well. I am not sure whether to write these as registry files or prepare a rexx registry processor to do this. The rexx registry has the advantage of being able to read registry, and also write reg_expand_sz strings without having to do unicode binary stuff. The data file could look like this. cdd also will make the folder if it does not exist. it depends on w32utils.dll behaviour.

cdd hklm\system\....
  dword name=value  (decimal or hex)
   string name=value
   none name
   delete name
   expand name=string
