As I asked above, what is the command preceeding the error?
And I know there are several versions of RevertMode around - which is
yours? (See comments in first few lines of !RunImage)

Again, the block of commands and errors would help.

I have run both !RevertMode and Pinboard2 here for years on my
Titanium (now with with RO5.31 6-Apr-2025) without seeing your
problems. I suspect there is something awry about your installation -
the question is what!

If you want, put the whole lot in a zip and send to me at the address
in Reporter Help -> Martin Avison and I will have a look.
