Error with plugin (but not `cson.parseFileSync`)

[Zearin]

I keep getting this error:

Parse error on line 22: unexpected dedent

It seems to always happen at line 22, even when I delete the content (and even the entire object) located there.

Here’s my CSON (after many modifications in my attempts to fix the error):

Forgot to mention: this parsed fine for me with both cson2json and programmatically (in the interactive CoffeeScript REPL).

So, it looks like this isn’t a bug after all.

DocPad’s error reporting (which I hope will get better) led me to believe otherwise.

It always claimed line 22 of the file in question, which was part of the CSON. However, I started toying with my HTML + Eco code below, and noticed that the line number in the error report changed.

Very annoying. But, I’ll link this post in that Issue for the benefit of discussion and others working on better error messages. :)
