Default I'm an idiot

Look at this real good, I figured it out thanks for the post

Original Code:

if($text=~/spells/i}

New Code:

if($text=~/spells/i)

Not being sleepy makes all the difference!

Thanks man.

One nice thing about Linux desktops; even the common text editors are "code friendly", if i would have thought to copy/paste script to my editor, would have seen a small problem like that.

Well, this event has taught me to put a syntax color for brackets and parenthesis. I never even considered that an error could occur like this.

Actually syntax checking is a very good feature. My quest editor would have flagged that error as a missing right bracket.


I also see copying pasting will change appearance of brackets - even different fonts make them look odd. I use standard VB/C fonts.
