Hello out there,
I am having trouble with code posted on a wiki page. The page in
question is
https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/Parsing+C+Types
- I created the three files descibed on this page (via copy and
paste),
- plus the tiny test file
- and started it as described
- and - BOOM: error message
missing close-brace: possible unbalanced brace in comment
while executing
"itcl::class CParser {"
(file "tmp/cparser.tcl" line 13)
That is, the creation of the CParser class is missing (at least !) one
closing brace.

Now AMG (the creator of this page) sure is no dabbler as he has
contributed several tools to the community and I am sure that the page
worked as advertised when originally posted.

Q: Exists the possibility to 'get back in history' on the wiki?
Perhaps someone has inadvertently changed something.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Yes, somewhere on the page in the menus will be a "history" link, with
that you can "go back in time" to any prior version of the page.

I predict you'll find that a Pooryorick edit for his personal style
beliefs of how the Wiki pages should appear has also broken the TCL code
in the page.

And in that history, creation and edits are all AMG, except the latest,
which is by the current OP - and all he did is reformat a comment or
two, as far as I can tell with a quick look.

Poor Yorick, I have been annoyed with him in the past, but surely he
need not be a permanent scapegoat.

Ah, so my prediction turned out to be incorrect in this instance.

Given the amount of damage he did, he became like Microsoft for their historical actions, never possible to ever redeem themselves.

which happend quite inadvertently - I am sorry (and I didn't realize
that I changed anything).

Me too, but this time he is isn't the culprit.
