InForm-PE

[a740g]

This is what ran:

 <user-login>@pop-os:~/Documents/InForm-PE-master$ sh ./setup_inform_lnx.sh
./setup_inform_lnx.sh: 6: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "fi")
<user-login>@pop-os:~/Documents/InForm-PE-master$ sh ./setup_inform_lnx.sh ~/Documents/qb64pe/
./setup_inform_lnx.sh: 6: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "fi")
<user-login>@pop-os:~/Documents/InForm-PE-master$

This is the new script setup you uploaded:

 #!/bin/bash
# InForm for QB64-PE Setup script

# Check if QB64-PE directory path is provided as an argument
if [ -n "$1" ]; then
    QB64PE_PATHS=("$1" "../qb64pe/" "../QB64pe/")
else
    QB64PE_PATHS=("../QB64pe/" "../qb64pe/")
fi

cd "$(dirname "$0")"

echo "Compiling InForm..."

# Loop through each QB64-PE path
for path in "${QB64PE_PATHS[@]}"; do
    make -f makefile.inform clean OS=lnx QB64PE_PATH="$path"
    make -f makefile.inform OS=lnx QB64PE_PATH="$path"
    if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
        break  # If build succeeds, exit loop
    fi
    echo "Build failed with QB64-PE path: $path"
done

This is the error I get:

Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "fi")

What do get out of this error?

I think you might be using something other than bash.
It works on my system. I'll take a look at this later.

In the meantime, run the following command. The script above basically does the same.
Assuming you have QB64-PE in ../qb64pe/

make -f makefile.inform clean OS=lnx QB64PE_PATH=../qb64pe/
make -f makefile.inform OS=lnx QB64PE_PATH=../qb64pe/
