Not working for me here, version 4.68 :-(

I've put into the TaskWindow ModeFile, at the end of the KeyList 
section:

<tab>cs_F11<tab>tw_kill
End

and when I save the file I get the error "Unknown token ". at line 
39", which is my new line. I assume I'm doing something wrong, but 
what?

TIA,

With best wishes,

Peter.
