This will copy the contents of /etc/skel/.xtdesktop to your home .xtdesktop directory, overwriting whatever is there:
cp -f /etc/skel/.xtdesktop/* $HOME/.xtdesktop/

The address listed at the bottom of my post is a very good starting point for learning all things linux (tldp.org is a good place for other more specific help as well). The command reference can be found at http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/linux/cmd/ and more info at http://www.linuxcommand.org/ although i don't think there exists a repository of ALL commands.
