The convert-at-root command is now complete. I tested it on David's .leo 
file and closed #1832.

The command ensures that all section definition nodes appear as descendants 
of the nodes containing the section references. The script finds each 
definition node by searching all @unit trees, clones the definition node 
and moves the clone to the proper place.

Some by-hand adjustment may be necessary. For example, in David's .leo file 
an @root node was *also* a section definition node(!!). In this special 
case the command does *not* change the headline: doing so would destroy the 
section definition. The fix should be obvious, but imo it would be 
pointless for the command to attempt it.

I will soon move leoTangle.py to the attic. I see no conceivable 
circumstance in which @root and @unit could ever be more useful than 
@clean.

his is a recipe for a conversion script! It should be straightforward.  
Iirc, @unit delimits the area that contains the desired section definitions.

Retiring @root is a good thing, and a conversion script should be part of 
the retirement process. I'm on it.

No problem.

I've got the folder. I've created a copy under control of git so I can
track my changes and compare with the originals.  I suspect it will be
straightforward to convert to either @file or @clean.  I'll use @clean at
first to minimize git diffs, but when the dust settles I would suggest
using @file if you can.

I'll let you know how the conversion process went soon.

I apologize for the delay in digging this up. 

I've shared a Dropbox link with your edreamleo  gmail  com email 
address. 

The link is to a shared folder that at present contains a Zip archive with 
a couple of  Leo files and WSF files - enough to open the Leo file. As the 
Leo file shows, I use the @root directive for each WSF file! 

Anything I can do to explain or correct problems, let me know.

Hi David,

It will be worth my time to suggest alternatives to @root. Please send me 
an example of how you use @root.  Thanks.
