"Expected a subroutine name" error

I wrote a test program for my LCD and it used to work but, now I get an error in Debug_Lcd program
PUB init(pin, baud, lines) : okay
'' Initializes serial LCD object
'' -- returns true if all parameters okay
okay := lcd.init(pin, baud, lines)
What did I erase and how can I get it back?
PUB init(pin, baud, lines) : okay

okay := lcd.init(pin, baud, lines)
What did I erase and how can I get it back?

I have both Serial_Lcd and Simple_Serial. They both compile fine. I know at least one of my files is corrupted, how do I get new ones?
Serial_LCD, Simple_Serial, and Simple_Numbers are all in the Propeller Library. If they have gotten corrupted or removed, maybe just install the Propeller Tool again to refresh?
FYI Your program in post #5 compiles and loads fine on a Quickstart Board with Propeller Tool Ver 3.1.2
Do you have a link?
Sorry Jim
