When browsing with Nautilus the title of the method was for example: "addProperty:key:". However the corpse of the method was totally random with something like that for example:
"ient;
������ ������ width: 1.
������ graphic strokeStyle: _strokeStyle"

So, reportedly, the name of the method was "ient;" ...

Basically I had many methods where the source code was just random chunks of other methods.

The funnier thing is that everything worked perfectly fine during execution.

I tried to look at different backup images I had to see when everything began to go wrong and I realised I had been working with broken source code for about a week.

So if I understand correctly, I probably messed up with the .changes file (I don't remembr how but maybe I copied the .image without the .changes or renamed the .image or i don't know).

And now the compiled code is okay but the source code is lost so everything is working fine until the system tries to recompile everything ?

Now my question is : is there a way to fix the issue ? I tried exporting the package to a .mcz but I had bugs everywhere. I imported the old working package to an .mcz and tried browsing the differences with the broken one just to manually get back eveything I changed during this week. But I couldn't cause there were bugs everytime I tried to browse the changes. Basically, are all my changes definitely lost or is there a way to get it back somehow (at least the raw source code) ?

I know that I fucked up and this is my fault but it would have been nice if something (anything) told me earlier that I did something wrong. I've been adding / modifying lots of methods and even executing the program for a week now and absolutely nothing told me that something was wrong until I tried adding an instance variable.

I am in a situation where I actually wrote and "saved" code and now it seems lost... that's frustrating :(

Thanks,
