Does anyone familiar with the language of LaTeX have any idea what's going on?
The \" command in TeX says "You see the next item? Put a diaeresis over it." So it is expecting a plain character, or possibly a command naming a character. But } is an "active" character with a special meaning. The most likely explanation here is that \" should *really* be \textquotedbl. Apparently someone thought \" in TeX was like \" in a C string, but it never has been. If you can change that line from \item |hyperindexformat{\"}.... to \item |hyperindexformat{\textquotdbl}.... the problem *might* go away.
