Recent Nebraska updates are naughty

While updating a fresh 16548 image I had to enable both  assigning to block arguments and underline assignment chars. I thougt we were trying to be nice and not do that?

It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than vice versa.

OK, so the first weirdness is why the image was all the way back at 16548 when I have much more recent ones… oh, because I downloaded the ‘latest’ one off squeak.org and assumed the top item in the list was most recent. Sigh.

The point about block argument assigning and _ stands, though.

Did I trigger that in Nebraska-dtl.51? If so it must be some existing
ancient code in that package that may still be in need of a clean up.

I see that you fixed one underscore assignment in August, perhaps there
are some more? The FixUnderscores utility, or Levente's improved version
thereof, would be the thing to use. I'm not sure how to find the
assignments to block arguments.

Nebraska seems a likely place for quite a lot of _ usage since it is quite old.

Logically one ought to be able to look at all the methods and find out but it’s beyond my capability at this time of a Monday. (Crosses fingers, hopes somebody solves it before Tuesday and I have to admit not having a clue)

I loaded FixUnderscores from SqueakMap, then did FixUnderscores fixPackage: 'Nebraska'.
It did not seem to update anything, so I expect that there are no underscore
assignment characters remaining in package 'Nebraska'.
