When I copy & paste OR type this line of code in, I get an error that reads "Too many arguments."

Make sure you remove the line break!

Don't copy the % sign to the command line, it is just the prompt. I absent-mindedly included the % iwhen I pasted and got this error:
%: Too many arguments.

If you have gotten the "too many arguments" message after attempting to use this hint, and you have copied the text of the hint from your web browser and pasted it into terminal, do not copy or paste the"%" character.
