Problem when opening a script file in IDA (syntax error)(pe_sections.idc)

Question

I downloaded the script files from http://www.openrce.org/downloads/details/57/PE_Scripts.

Then i extracted the files in the folder idc in the IDA folder (C:\Program Files\IDA 7.0\idc)

I opened IDA (64 bits) normally and load the PE program , and when i do File>script files> and then select pe_sections.idc the program give me this error :

C:\Program Files\IDA 7.0\idc\pe_sections.idc: C:\Program Files\IDA 7.0\idc\pe_sections.idc,1887: Syntax error near: 0x8

Is there anything i can do ? i am trying to do patch and changing on the program , thanks for any help .

You probably need the 2003 version of pe_sections.idc. There were some bugs in the older versions related to parsing x64 files. We were learning both IDC scripting and the details of the x64 format at the same time.
