Sharing a working layer rewrite using anonymous mixed rules. The new in the first 100ish lines the rest is old retained for reference.

EDIT) updated bugs and style improvements.

Hi @ItsOhen can I add this script in our little HyDE dot files community?. I want to add this as migration script. Thank you!

[ItsOhen]

I havn't updated the python script since i moved it to the static pages.
But i can do it now and you can yank it after that.

[ItsOhen]

@kRHYME7 Now fix.py should be usable as well. Probably should test it yourself before you push it out to make sure it fits your use-case. Ran it through the stack of rules i've piled up and seems to work. But better safe than sorry.

[kRHYME7]

Thank you! @ItsOhen
