Some of my scripts that used to work correctly in 0.71 now fail to parse in 0.85 and I've narrowed down the problem to this error in the parser:
This example expression parses fine:
set x to ( ( 100 - 50 ) / ( 30 - 10 ) * 1.01 ).
While this one generates a syntax error:
set x to (
( 100 - 50 ) / ( 30 - 10 ) * 1.01
).
They are identical except for the fact that the second one has some of the whitespace in the form of end-of-lines instead of in the form of spaces.
The problem seems to be that a closing parenthesis must appear on the same line as its matching opening parenthesis. At least that's what it seems like is the problem from my trial and error.
