No idea - I know I went through pretty much all of the documentation and
redid it for the 2.3.0 release.  The wiki has a history feature you
could use to determine who and when it was removed.  I might have been
me.  I'd prefer not to have scripts on the wiki pages in general.

If this script is useful, you should send in a patch that adds it (and a
README describing it) to the contrib/ directory in the CDE source code. 
Then, on whatever page you are talking about, we can simply describe and
reference the script in the source tree.
