Ok, I sat down last night and spent a few hours (!) on getting SM into shape for 3.9. It turned out to be more work if doing it properly. [...] unfortunately it contained [...] tons of modifications caused by automatic conversion of underscore to :=.
Now - one question regarding that last part: Why did you replace *all* underscores in the source with ":=" ?!? I saw at least one method in which underscores *inside my String literals* had been replaced. Ouch.
That shouldn't have happened, at least not with my automatic conversion procedure, which carefully does not touch methods that contain underscore in literals. I hope. Of course, when going over the remaining methods manually these might have slipped in.
What would be helpful in this case is if we had a "pretty printed diff" in Monticello so one could see the actual changes undisturbed by cosmetic modifications. I found it so cumbersome to merge 3.9 packages with my own versions that I gave up on it.
Any takers? :)
