Hi Doug,

    What does "smash case" in the "-strict" option mean? 

If I'm reading tangle.ch right, identifiers are folded to uppercase for
comparison. (-strict sets strict_mode:=true.)

begin if (strict_mode or force_uppercase) and (buffer[i]>="a") then
  chopped_id[s]:=buffer[i]-@'40
else if (not strict_mode and force_lowercase)
       and (buffer[i]>="A") and (buffer[i]<="Z") then
  chopped_id[s]:=buffer[i]+@'40

    Also, there's a typo in the "-underline" option: "indentifiers" should
    be "identifiers".

Ack. --thanks, karl.
