On my laptop with TL 2019, TANGLE 4.5, the command
tangle -h
produces, among other lines of output, the following:
-lowercase make all identifiers lowercase
-mixedcase retain the case of identifiers unchanged (default)
-strict always smash case and remove underlines when comparing
identifiers
-underline do not remove underline characters from indentifiers
-uppercase make all identifiers uppercase
Assuming the latest version is the same ...
What does "smash case" in the "-strict" option mean? I would suggest getting rid of the term and unambiguously stating whether it's lowercase or uppercase. Assuming it's "lowercase":
-strict when comparing identifiers, remove underlines
and convert to lowercase
Also, there's a typo in the "-underline" option: "indentifiers" should be "identifiers".
