when I have this problem, I just start at the beginning, search for double quotes and step through the entire file (don't forget included files) and then I do it again for single quotes.

I've had the actual error be 20+ lines earlier than the first reported issue.

Yup, encountered that problem before which is why I included what I hoped would

long I’m going cross-eyed.
I don’t have anyone else who knows the format to even ask for their eyes..

that sort of error typically means that somewhere prior to this line there are
mismatched quotes, sometimes far before.
