I have a piece of code that works on Linux, but when I try to run it on windows, I get an invalid syntax error:

def testHSPresent():
    if os.path.exists('.highScores.hs'):
        print "Highscores Present!"
    else:<<--------------------error on this line (this marker not in actual code)
        hs = open(".highScores.hs", "w")
        hs.write(str("0000"))
        hs.write('\n')

Your code is not Python 3 compatible. – Martijn Pieters Mar 22 '14 at 19:39

print is a function in python3. Try print("Highscores Present!") – x3al Mar 22 '14 at 19:39
