Yeah, I do see that every once in a while.  I have a very simple
script, that looks perfect, but will always return "syntax error".  I
copied the text, pasted into a text editor and checked all the indents
and tabs, then recreated the script.  Problem went away.

What was interesting is that I didnt change the code.  And even
thought the indents were the same, re-adding them might have solved
it.  Dont know for sure, but I dont see this enough to cause me
problems.
