Please help: PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (application.lua:1: unexpected symbol near ''ï'') #10

Please forgive me if this is an easy issue that I am just to much newb to know about it or figure it out. I have googled the "unexpected symbol" error and found it suggested that it could be an issue with hidden characters due to encoding. I copied your raw application.lua file and pasted it into visual basic and saved it encoded with UTF-8 without signature as application.lua. Sadly, this made no difference... About the 3rd time formatting and re-loading the .lua files it I got a the same error but with a "?" instead of the 'ï'. Please help. I'd really like to get this working.
Please see error in action below.

I have not seen this problem before, sorry. Why do you need to copy/paste the file? Why not just upload the files directly?
