You were right -- it was my code!  The fact that the error
message caret always pointed to the last line of the program,
even if it was a comment, was just a symptom of  an input
statement earlier in the program that looked like this:

input("Spam?"

So the interpreter was just waiting around for that trailing
parenthesis.

Your response inspired me to go through the program and
selectively comment everything out -- I felt pretty silly when I
found the mistake.  Thanks for the help!
