Jacl should display line number on error

2006-08-22T21:22:20Z

When running TCL/Jacl-based scripts, it is often
difficult to determine where a particular problem is
without the help of line numbers in the error message.

Here is an example script (named blah.tcl):

puts "hi"
set blah [[]
puts "bye"

Here is the output of running this script:

C:\dev\jacl\bin>jaclsh blah.tcl
hi
missing close-bracket

In this example it is easy to tell that the problem is
on line 2, but in larger script files, this can be more
difficult to determine.

The output should read something like:
missing close-bracket on line 2:
set blah [[]

Thanks!
