I have seen this problem before.  It only happens in certain foreign 
countries where the English ASCII byte codes get mangled in 
translation.  Electric tries to turn the string "(c)" into a single 
"copyright" character, and that character has gotten mangled on your computer.

The solution is to go to the offending line and make sure that the quotes 
are balanced.  You will find something like:
    xxx("d)
and you should turn it into:
    xxx("d")
