[fixed] Bitter Sweet decorate error

Normaly I wouldn't post a bug report about this, but I find it odd that a wad that works fine in ZDoom 2.0.98 would get a ZDOOM Fatal Error, Script error, "DECORATE" line 125: Frames must be A-Z, [, \ or ] in GZDoom. Unless I'm mistaken, this wad did work in a previous version of GZDoom, but I don't remember which.

It's the as-is release of bitter.wad without modification by me.

As there are multiple decorate lumps in the wad, I don't really know where to start looking. I have also searched the forum to see if this has been reported before, so I'm sorry if it's a duplicate (again).

Edit:
Possibly related to this

Can you post that line? I don't have the WAD.

I have no idea which line it is.
As I've said, there is more than one decorate lump in the wad, so I don't know which one to look in.

It's here, direct link here.

The line reads (at least, I think this is the correct line)

//Loop

Are comments allowed (or not) in DECORATE? If they aren't, the forward slash at the beginning of the line would cause the error. (Backward slashes are allowed in frames, but not forward slashes)

Of course they are allowed.

This is something Randy has to take care of as well but for GZDoom it is now fixed.
