Erasing Portable subfile

[Brett Greiner (Kinetix)]

Hi Richard,

I can't fully understand why you would want to do something like that?
Can you explain why? 

Cheers,
Brett.

Subject: Erasing Portable subfile

Does anyone know if it is possible to erase the data portion of a
portable subfile (on Unix) while maintaining the dictionary structure?
Typically these subfiles exist as 3 files something.dat, something.sd
and something.idx. Can I simply remove the dat file and recreate with
touch? Or do i have to recreate? Thanks.
