Hi, I've had this problem in the past and still cannot fully understand.
I latelly passed my source code in Wing IDE wihch asked be to resolve tab/space/CRLF conflicts and I said yes (initially the code was developped under Linux ... and now all source got tabs replaced by spaces and all EOL when switched to Windows CR/LF) I sent a new release of the software, tested here first, to the customer who got a syntax error on a line which visibly did not have any error. retyping that line by and made the error jump around the file like crazy. I had the customer comment out the first two lines of the file: """ #!/bin/env python # -*- coding: iso-8859-15 -*- """ ... and the problem disappeared. I am at a loss. Any clue ?
