Is there a function Fixup[]?

In the source code for the CDF demonstration on Fractal Curves, Roman Maeder uses a statement tt=Fixup[t]. Mathematica accepts this statement but I cannot find any documentation on the ?Function? The source is as follows:

SetAttributes[Curve, Flat]
Curve /: r_c _Curve := r # & /@ c
simplify[c_Curve] := 
 c //. {Curve[Turn[r1_], Turn[r2_]] :> Curve[Turn[r1 + r2]], 
   Curve[Turn[[Angle]_ /; [Angle] == 0.0]] :> Curve[]}
Iterate[c_Curve, template_Curve] := c /. Move[l_] :> l template
Iterate[c_Curve, template : {__Curve}] := 
 c /. Move[l_, n_: 1] :> l template[[n]]
Move /: l_Move[l1, args___] := Move[l l1, args]
Turn /: l_Turn[a_] := Turn[a]
Fractal[c_Curve, t_, n_Integer ?NonNegative] := 
 With[{tt = Fixup[t]}, Nest[Iterate[#, tt] &, c, n]]
Manipulate[examples; 
 Graphics[Fractal[ex[[1]], ex[[2]], n], 
  ImageSize -> {450, 400}], {{n, 3, "iterations"}, 0, 5, 1, 
  Appearance -> "Labeled"}, {{ex, examples[[1]], "replacement curves",
    ControlType -> SetterBar}, 
  Thread[examples -> {Graphics[Fractal[#[[1]], #[[2]], 1], 
        ImageSize -> {70, 70}] & /@ examples}], 
  ControlType -> SetterBar}, SaveDefinitions -> True]

and I get an error in the Fractal function call that I am trying to understand.

The CDF runs fine.

If you download the "Author Code" from the link in the upper right hand side of

http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/FractalCurves/

or use this link (which is the link from that page)

http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/downloadauthornb.cgi?name=FractalCurves

Then Open all cells in the notebook's section called "Initialization Code" and you will see the definition of all the functions used in the demonstration--including the Fixup function that he defines there.
