Hi,

a slight refinement on my remark: we may read "X1", but the compiler
probably interprets this as X, followed by the next format group that
begins with
a 1 - commas are not required. Hence it has a very good reason to report
the closing parenthesis as the erroneous part. It simply is not the way a
human being would parse the format.

You have some very good eyes, and I now understand. Thank you.

Regards
Mark
