Can I have some help?

Whenever I paste a string of code in blockSpecs, at the end of the code in the 'list' blockspec it says there is an unmatched string quote right after the word 'list and just before the other '. Can I have any help about how to prevent this or fix it?

you probably used a block spec with an apostrophe in somewhere, like
('users's files'    r     usersFiles:)
and that made the computer turn all the quotes upside down. Try using a double quote '', meaning two of ' together, in place of the apostrophe  big_smile

Thanks. That clears things up.
