Sorry all - I spotted my deliberate mistake from my last message in the
boss.config file  (I had ../deps/boss instead of ./deps/boss) Apologies for
the false alarm.

BUT . . . . now I am back to my original problem - strange syntax errors in
compiling.

As an example, my code looks like this:

<pre>
124    NewGood = Good + case Stab >= 36 +
125                  (Rh:teeset()):total_par() -
126                  (Rh:teeset()):rating(EntryPlayer:gender()) -
127
hcap_congu_lib:cat_category(((Rh:entity()):player()):exact()) of
128                        true    ->  1;
129                        false   ->  0
130                     end,
</pre>

and the compiler objects thus:

<pre>
==> cb-prodfix (pre_compile)
16:02:27.995 [error] Compile Error, "src/lib/hcap_congu.erl" ->
[{"/home/graeme/projects/egolf/dev/cb-prodfix/src/lib/hcap_congu.erl",[{127,erl_parse,["syntax
error before: ","hcap_congu_lib"]}]}]
</pre>

I have looked with a hex editor and made sure there is nothing but blanks
in the file, and as I mentioned before, I can erlc the file and create a
.beam file with no problems, so . . . well - I dont know.

Any thoughts anyone?
