Cool, thanks! (and thanks, Vanessa)

I now see Squeak automatically replaces underscores in the copy/pasted or
filed-in code - but only for viewing; the source still contains the original
underscores (that's why I unwittingly uploaded the test with
underscores...). I've now tried to file-in with underscores -> see := in the
browser -> file out and underscores still there. 

So the tool really comes in handy here and preserving the original
author/timestamp is cool too. Thanks again.
best,
