The line number should point to the line of his script that has the 
error, not the line in the variable. If the compiler doesn't know which 
script line has the error, it seems like a compiler problem. But...

True, although "item 4" would be "1020&return&0" -- which isn't a valid 
point either. We need to know if he has multiple monitors.

Right. Or use "item 4 of line 1" instead.

But the line number in the error message should not be "n/a" in any 
case. There is something wrong there.
