An error - this time it goes on my account - is the following. I got the message

> File ended while scanning use of \newlabel.

and online people said it is caused by missing closing bracket. I tried so many things and it was strange because the error was a bit erratic. I even counted the frequency of characters

> grep -o . filename | sort | uniq -c

with the expectation that the number of { should be the same as the count of } - although no sufficient proof.

I then removed most of the text and kept adding paragraphs until the error occurred. However, this procedure led to inconsistent findings.

At the end I went back to the original source. Since I included the .tex file with \include{}, I had to comment out the \begin{document} and \end{document}. Precisely, the 2nd I did not do. This means there was an additional \end{document}.
