Hi,

Because the backslash escapes the linebreaks, lines 91-95 are fed into
the evaluator as a single line.
If you do the same in a text editor, i.e. convert this into a single
line, and then go to the location stated in the error message (character
position 141), you should find the cause of the syntax error there or
nearby.

There is clearly a syntax error in the snippet you posted, but I won't
tell you what it is so that you can find it yourself. ;)

Regards,
Botond
