I am not sure if this gets backed up with the 770 backup utility. Since it is part of the home directory, I would think it would be backed up.

There was a bug report in bugzilla about this and apparently the problem has been resolved with the latest image. see https://maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=306
I looked into the backup files just now and the .gpe directory is indeed within the documents.zip file. So it is in the back up. I haven't tried to restore it yet, but it's there it can always be extracted manually when needed.

Henry stated that the new Nokia Image backs up the .gpe folder, so if you are using the latest image, it should be backed up with the Nokia "backup" applet,

Which directory has it. I went to xterminal and looked into usr directory with ls, no luck.
Have to start practicing my unix skills again...
Would somebody post a magic string that would copy a folder from gpe to an external memory card.
I am on the previous image and would like to make backup of gpe stuff before moving to new image.
--h
