+__doc__ = '''Make changes to a backup UFO to match some changes made to another UFO by FontLab
+When a UFO is first round-tripped through Fontlab 7, many changes are made including adding 'smooth="yes"' to many points
+in glifs and removing it from others.  Also if components are after contours in a glif, then they get moved to before them.
+These changes make initial comparisons hard and can mask other changes.  
+This script takes the backup of the original font that Fontlab made and writes out a new version with contours changed 
+to match those in the round-tripped UFO so a diff can then be done to look for other differences.
+A glif is only changed if there are no other changes to contours.
+If also moves components to match.
