It is possible that my answer useless, but it is worth giving a try! Sometimes this strange errors might be due to strange or hidden characters in the input file. If I save your e-mail in text format the comma following prefix = ‘ZnS’ looks different from all the others. Just to be sure about that, I’ve tried to search for the , character and that comma is the only one that is not matched by the search command. I don’t know if this is just something it has happened in the e-mail or is a true problem with the input file. Try to put the comma “,” and see if it works.
