Lua sees this as
	local Nc_GUI_InfoBox
	("ERROR: The program's focus must be in the Note Pane when executing this action. Terminating prematurely.", 1, "ERROR", nDlgWidth, nDlgHeight)

and so is complaining that the expression in parentheses is malformed because
a comma cannot be part of an expression). It is expecting a function call
after the parentheses are closed, though it hasn't reached that part yet.
