Hello,


I seem to have accidentally 'orphaned' three functions i built .

That is, the code is still active in memory, and the function name
shows in black and displays its intended data ; however, the file's
copies of the functions' source-code have been modified and recompiled
under different names, for different purposes .

Is there a way to retrieve function source-code in Mathematica ?

If they are not ReadProtected it is easy:

Information[functionname]

If you don't use UpValues or SubValues, this will also give the function
definitions:

DownValues[functionname]

??nameOfRoutine prints the source code

Perhaps doing ??funcname will do the trick for you.
