Phantom Line Numbers

[Christopher D . Lewis]

I'm writing a little toy tool to teach myself more Perl than I have used before, and I am puzzled by error messages I get when trying to run and debug it:


syntax error at ./nudice-01c line 187, near "sub displayResults "
syntax error at ./nudice-01c line 305, near "sub rollRequest"
syntax error at ./nudice-01c line 325, near "while @rawRollArray"
syntax error at ./nudice-01c line 457, near "}"
Execution of ./nudice-01c aborted due to compilation errors.


The problem is, you see, that (according to two different text editors) nudice-01c has only 304 lines ....

Any ideas how I debug lines which don't exist? Any ideas why Perl is reporting nonexistent line numbers? Perl 5.8.0.

Thanks in advance,
Chris
