I just compared Kambiz
v
ERROR = !SyntaxException:parseError:\h
!SyntaxException:parseError:^<identifier> expected
^
with Martin
v
ERROR = !SyntaxException:parseError: \h
!SyntaxException:parseError:^<identifier> expected
^
In the second case (Martin) there's indeed a ' ' that the error message
complains about, while in the first case (Kambiz) there is no ' ', but the
error message complains about the '\' --- at least that's how I read the
above error messages.
