           ?pathWidth      form->width->value
           ;?acceptString  form->number->value
    This is not how to use acceptString, this keyword is to allow you to enter a string in the CIW without terminating the enterFunction (EF). Even though this is commented out, you need to read the documentation on how to use the EF. This is in the Cadence User Interface SKILL Reference.

     You did not say what the line was which is causing the error. Set the variable _stacktrace = 5 then execute the code. Cut the error message out and paste it into your response and we can see what the problem really is.

     An aside: the let statement sets the variables a and b to the empty list (nil) so you do not have to do so again in your code: a = list()
