I've got a question about the Smalltalk-80 CharacterScanner:
In the 'scanCharactersFrom:to:in:rightX:stopConditions:displaying:' method,
both the instance variable 'stopConditions' and the parameter 'stops' are used.
In my opinion, this is an error.  The primitive method <103> does it right:
It uses only the parameter.  Is there any reason why the Smalltalk method is
different ?
