Oh.  Yes.  Sorry!

As I recall, there isn't an easier way for Win95.  Perhaps there is some
cunning command-line option to regedit, but I doubt it.  Regedt32 is
better in many ways but worse in others, than regedit, and it uses
registry security, which Win95 doesn't understand, which is why, I assume,
they don't package it with 95.
