Hi

Whenever we start pencil code we get the syntax error message and have to “do cs” to remove it. Even if their is no syntax error the message still appears.

Hope you can help.

Thanks

Sounds like it is a problem with the Grammerly together with Safari.

The general issue is that the pencil code console will highlight errors of any sort that occur when a program is run - and unfortunately there are some extensions that cause errors on some browsers!  These errors are normally not noticed when you use the extension, but Pencil Code will see them and report them.

Hopefully it will be possible for you to either use Chrome or disable Grammerly while using Pencil Code?

Yep! Thanks David, it was the Grammarly extension that checks the grammar of anything that is written in a dialogue box, so it makes sense. I only had two extensions anyway so it was good. It would seem that Grammarly plays nicer with Chrome than with Safari?

Thanks!  The error is coming from the "babel/polyfill" line which is something that Pencil Code does not do.  It might be something that a Safari extension is doing.

Under Safari preferences "Extensions" it should list your extensions - if you disable all of them, does the error go away?

If so, can you tell which extension is causing the issue?

Hi

I thought that might have been the case. This looks like the real thing.

Hi - sorry - for the last step, I meant: go back to the page on pencilcode.net which causes the error, and send me a screenshot of _that_ again with the developer console showing.  (You've sent me a screenshot of the developer console showing on apple's page.)
