It um, gave you the line number :P

You need to get an editor that shows these, since Notepad doesn't. I think Notepad++ does, and it's freeware. It also has tabs for different documents so you don't need to have lots of notepads open, just one and tab through all the files ;)

Groupy 2 - Organize multiple applications into grouped tabs on your Windows desktop

Yeah, I was just trying to save you some time for future errors :P Eventually you'll also need an easy way to convert your stuff to new game versions, so on top of Notepad++ you should take a look at Beyond Compare (Ironclad actually uses it too :P)
