Having problems today with what is seemingly erroneous errors when checking syntax. I haven't found a pattern yet. I'm running Ubuntu 13.04. The errors occur in Chrome and Firefox. I've tried clearing cache, etc. Maybe something obvious below.

market is etf /* getting error here */

set{dir, close 1 day ago - close 10 days ago}
set{vol1, abs(close - close 1 day ago)}
set{vol2, abs(close 1 day ago - close 2 day ago)}
set{vol3, abs(close 2 day ago - close 3 day ago)}
set{vol4, abs(close 3 day ago - close 4 day ago)}
set{vol5, abs(close 4 day ago - close 5 day ago)}
set{vol6, abs(close 5 day ago - close 6 day ago)}
set{vol7, abs(close 6 day ago - close 7 day ago)}
set{vol8, abs(close 7 day ago - close 8 day ago)}
set{vol9, abs(close 8 day ago - close 9 day ago)}
set{vol10, abs(close 9 day ago - close 10 day ago)}
set{vol, vol1 + vol2 + vol3 + vol4 + vol5 + vol6 + vol7 + vol8 + vol9 + vol10}

set{eff, dir / vol} /* getting error here */

add column eff /* getting error here */

set{vol, vol1 + vol2 + vol3 + vol4 + vol5 + vol6 + vol7 + vol8 + vol9 + vol10}

I believe only 2 variables may be worked with at any one SET.
From USER GUIDE: page 137


You shouldn't get errors with this partial 'VOL'. You will need to string together your additions (I did the first two.).
