Hi Nicole,

Ooooh, the "Display all 110 possibilities" is very helpful...

For the record, I can run your script successfully as is. And I can reproduce the error if I paste it into a bash terminal window.


Maybe you are running bash, and maybe you are using copy-and-paste to run the script. In that case, the TAB characters work to prompt to "Display all 110 possibilities" for file completion.

Since the script has no spaces toward the ends of the lines (it has only tabs (e.g. after 18 and all of the +tlrc's)), and since there are no spaces at the beginnings of the lines, those tabs disappear and the end of one line connects to the beginning of the next.

To be specific, the first "18" (for -blevels) is connecting to the subsequent "-dset", making the next option to be seen a "1", and without any -dset option.

Anyway, put this script in a file and run it via either tcsh or bash (either should be okay as it is written), e.g.

tcsh -x my.anova.script

One general rule that will help readability and avoid these issues: indent any continued lines. That is to say, add some spaces before all of the -dset and following options.

Anyway, let me know if that helps.
