syntax error unexpected keyword_end expecting '}' SHOES

Question

My Son made a program for fun with Shoes, which is basically the same as ruby but has a gui. (only difference i know in syntax is alert instead of puts.) He got errors while running it ans looked to me. I can't find the cause of all these errors. And the *'s are substitutes for classified info.

Thank You

Paste the full exception - it should include a reference to the line number there's a problem on. — girasquid, Aug 29 '12 at 19:27
Your identation is a bit all over the place - these things are a lot easier to spot with consistent indentation — Frederick Cheung, Aug 29 '12 at 19:44

Try switching all of your '{' to 'do' and your '}' to 'end'. I stopped getting the errors once I did that.

Not having any shoes experience, I am not sure why it matters. But there are minor differences between the two - see do..end vs curly braces for blocks in Ruby.
