Does anyone know what this syntax error might mean?[code:1:988210480c]
** Syntax error, line 1315
**: }
[/code:1:988210480c]It says line 1315, but how do I know which file is that?

It might help to know what command you are trying to use ..... Otherwise, type d_trace before running a script to trace its execution.

I am using the wfreduce task in wifes package:[code:1:2d28c919e7]wifes> wfreduce
** Syntax error, line 1315
**: }
[/code:1:2d28c919e7]with d_trace:[code:1:2d28c919e7]wifes> d_trace wfreduce
ERROR: trace arg should be an integer
called as: `d_trace (wfreduce)'
[/code:1:2d28c919e7]wifes> d_trace

wifes> wfreduce
----- task cl - line 12 (CALL) -----
12 1684+6: call wfreduce

----- task wfreduce - line 1315 (END) -----
1315 1696+3: end

wifes> Could the problem in line 12 then?

'd_trace' is a single command.Otherwise, look at line 1315 of the wfreduce.cl script and check for a missing match to the close brace.
