Having trouble with the following perl script (C:\perl\run-gpx.pl) that i've been trying to use with for 3d printing. Found script here, modified slightly for folder paths. http://www.3duniverse.org/2014/01/05/using-slic3r-with-a-flashforge-creator/

I'm getting this error: Search pattern not terminated at C:\perl\run-gpx.pl line 7. 

#!/usr/bin/perl -i
use strict;
use warnings;
use File::Basename;
use Win32;
my $fname = $ARGV[0];
my ($name, $path, $suffix1) = fileparse($fname, qr’\.[^\.]*');
my $shortname = "$name$suffix1";
my $shortpath = Win32::GetShortPathName($path);
exec "c:/Slic3r/gpx-win32-1.3/gpx.exe" -g -p -m r1d $shortpath$shortna
+me "C:/Slic3r/Output Files/$name.x3g"
