I am sure there are a billion errors in this.
This is the first one: 
    Line:17 - Last generator in do {...} must be an expression
What this means is that the compiler has interpreted the last line
of a do expression to be a generator (i.e. pat <- exp), which is
bad Haskell.

In your case, here is main:
...
main=do userText<-getText
Occasionally, this may be caused by offside errors:

	main = do foo <- bar
                return foo
                ^ offside error, Haskell interprets this as not being
                  part of the do expression
