When programming I sometimes encounter a situation where the method entry pane stays in error mode so anything I type or copy in, even perfectly good code produces an error, usually nothing more expected and most or all of the code stays red.  In the past I've lucked out of it somehow, deleting a hard to see misplaced character.  But this time it doesn't stop even on a method with only a name, comment and hand entered | |.  How is this preference for calling everything an error defeated?  Thanks.
