If you can provide the entire file that compiled with the mistake in it, that might help provide valuable context, especially if someone else can reproduce it locally.
>From what you have described, if the only difference between two files is that one has a ] and the other has that one character deleted, and it isn't commented out or inside of a string, I can think of no way that both of those files have correctly balanced square brackets, and thus one or the other seems like it should give an error when trying to compile. Do you have something in your development environment that might be automatically balancing expressions for you?
