​I've never had problems running a leap script via "tleap -f leap.in" as
opposed to typing the commands in one-by-one. It _seems_ to me that tleap
is interpreting your script correctly, but it just can't find any of the
files. Maybe your file has DOS line endings (are you running on Windows)?
 Is tleap somehow getting run from a different directory than where your
files are?

HTH,
