I copied your pattern file to "test.pattern" without the comment at the bottom and added a comment at the top to remind me what it is next time I see it. Then I loaded it with no problem and tested it:
view "PATLOAD":"test.pattern","PATCODE":"GREEK" f i=1:1:255 s c=$c(i) w !,i,?5,c?1a,c?1u,c?1l,c?1n,c?1p,c?1c,?15,c That gave me an error "Current pattern table has no characters with pattern code P", which suggests that you need to define PATCODE C as well. I put in some entries for codes C and P and the test ran to completion. Set up your environment variables after debugging your pattern file and use the view commands until then.
