This is a data file not a procedure. I do check as I go. Evidently while
working in the file I "bumped" the wrong key or in some other way deleted
the quote and everything stopped working.
However, I have found a pretty good syntax checker in Antechinus Javascript
Editor. Sorry to have bothered the list with a problem I should have solved
long ago by myself.
