Hi Danielo

Apologies, I didn't mean to imply that the actual task of adapting code for
5.0.16 is trivial, just that the nature of the changes is relatively
straightforward because they are regular changes.

A tool that does the search and replacing may be feasible. In some cases
there may still need to be manual intervention/verification, I guess.

Right now upgrader modules don't get told the version number of the
incoming TW document, which would be needed in this case so that the
upgrader can determine whether or not to make the replacements for a
certain tiddler.

Best wishes

Jeremy
