Depending on the situation you may not need to change the file back to
foo.ex_ . For example, I used to expand some files from the NT4.0 i386,
change the file contents per my needs and leave the expanded file in the
i386 directory. The when I would use the i386 source it wouldn't overwrite
the file like you would think, it would simply use the already expanded file
that I modified. 

I know this isn't answering your question exactly but this info may help.

Say you have a file called foo.ex_

You run expand on it, and make it foo.exe

Can you take foo.exe and go back to foo.ex_ ?

Thanks!
