Override check

Ok, here's a whopper of a topic. I previously used an old version of Zen before there was such a thing as Overrides. I just started a new project with 1.3.7.1 and wasnt too familiar with the override system. Needless to say, I started making my edits without them. This was until I read about the issues with upgrading and not using overrides. Luckily, I wasn't in too far, and copied the changed files to the proper CUSTOM template folders. However, I'm sure I may have missed something.

Now to the point. Is it at all possible to generate some kind of script or mod that can check if core files have been altered so we know if we need to properly relocate them prior to an upgrade? Hindsight is 20/20 and I have a strong feeling that when it comes time to upgrade, I'll lose some settings.

Talk about a longshot, but I had to ask...

Re: Override check

Use WinMerge or Beyond Compare to compare all the files in your working version against a clean copy of zc1.3.7.1
