Lua "Missing script header" issue? (-etc.)

Getting Stuff Done How do I .... ?
#1

Continuing the discussion from LUA script: Create Crossfades:

I would really like to get this ^ person’s Lua script working on my machine (Mac OS X 10.6.8, with Ardour 6.9.0), although no changes I make seem to get it to work, let alone save properly. The “script header” seems to all be there. Clearly the code worked for them, so why won’t my machine work with it?

Is there a coder out there that can take 2 minutes to let me know what is wrong here?

-Thank you for any help/info.!
-Cheers!

It would seem it’s a follow up error to the missing end (see error message in the script output).

Since the script cannot be compiled, the header cannot be evaluated either.

Haha, what a dumb mistake… -I didn’t copy and paste the final “end end” of the script. ._.
(It should now be more than obvious I have zero coding experience. :disappointed: )

Anyway, -thank you!!! -I got it working now! :grin: :+1:
