I have been trying  the 'lspline.inc' macro and run into a strange error..

The last 2 lines of the macro are:

#end
#end

Apparently the parser is reading this as:

#end
#,

I have tried rewriting the line and clearing any possible garbage but the
problem remains.

Any ideas.

What version of POV are you using?
Try putting a return after the last #end, I remember something about POV 
having a problem with #end being the last thing in a file. This might 
have been fixed in the latest versions.

It is the most recent, have you tried adding the extra return after the 
last #end? The problem might not have been fixed.

Just wondering if this is related to the parenthesis wrapper problem pointed out
before by Chris C. in the use of AutoClock.mcr and it was glitched when used in
MegaPOV (alone maybe?) unless the entire declaration was set into ( ).  Memory
doesn't serve me well here though.
Or perhaps there might be a directive, i.e. #if() #end, contained within a
layered texture?  I know that has a flaw too anyway.

Yes I made sure that a CR was put on the end and also tried  "// end of
file" plus a CR to see if an extra line would help.

I get thisa every once in a while on my Mac. I delete the lines in question,
save the file, retype them by hand, save again. That seems to work. I noticed
it usually when I copied and pasted code blocks and then edited the second
block that I would get this behaviout.
