I feel the same about source code - I want to see it as it was written, not what some pretty printer makes of it.<br>
<br>
The way source code looks tells me something about the author. Same for instance variable order.<br></blockquote><div><br>Well, in a debugging session I'd like to get the info about the state of objects as easily as possible, so that I can understand what is going on. _I_ am not trying to guess, if there is some intention in the ordering of instances vars and what the intention is, to quickly find the instance var I'm interested in.<br>
<br>But no biggie. There are surely other possibilities to get there and more pressing issues to solve.<br><br>Alex<br></div></div>
