not sure there is a simple way - I would backup/restore homedir's, /usr/Softimage, /usr/aw and /usr/local . I'm willing to bet there is some other dir that is worth backing up but It's not clear to me at the moment.

but there are other tweaks those software might have done to other things (toolchest, icon catalog, whatever the process is to setup icons, etc)

I've always sort of was under the impression if I do a re-install from CD's, I'm reinstalling everything.
