Folks -

I've just posted 4 more updates, but they are mostly repairs for my having missed some important input from the harvesters.

-----------------------
4727initLeftMargin-ls -- Lex Spoon -- 14 January 2002
Make sure leftMargin gets initialized in CharacterScanner; this bug was brought out recently when Scamper is showing a page with indentation, and the mouse is waved over an indented line."

4728includesIdentity-sw -- Scott Wallace -- 30 January 2002
Fixes up one missed reference to References in the module work."

4729existenceOfPath-cmm -- Chris Muller, Scott Wallace -- 25 January 2002
The crux of this update is Chris's fix to FileDirectory>>assureExistanceOfPath:, which did not previously account for platform-specific differences in case-sensitivity, causing it to take a path of logic that quickly leads to a primitive failure on Win32 machine (attempting to create a directory that already exists).
The 'existance' misspelling is corrected to 'existence' and the other method name with the same misspelling is also fixed, as of course are all senders."

4730FixUpdateGlitches-di -- Dan Ingalls -- 30 January 2002
In merging the various submissions from harvesters, I omitted several useful tweaks and reviewed decisions.  This update attempts to set them straight, with apologies to Scott Wallace for my oversights.
In particular,
  Restored the solution of 4728includesIdentity 
  4272InitLeftMargin supplants CharacterBlockScannerFix (simpler, more general)
  ShrinkWrapObjectsTool withdrawn until we can find a way to avoid jerkiness.
  Retracted 4705 and 4707.
  Improved wording of Brace explanation in 4714.
