Question Syntax error near unexpected token 'else'

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:

line 37: syntax error near unexpected token 'else'
line 37: ' else'

the script is made to take 1 or 2 command line arguments however i get the above stated error when trying to process it. This happens with or without arguments inputted. I looked over and over it however i cant see why the else is giving an error, i have an even amount of if - fi 's and the else is placed within the if - fi code. Im not sure what im doing wrong. Thanks in advance.

2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:

P.S. I am using cygwin in windows to do this script.

3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):

NAME
ccd2iso - convert IMG format to ISO format SYNOPSIS
ccd2iso [FOO.IMG] [BAR.ISO] DESCRIPTION
ccd2iso converts FOO.IMG to ISO format and writes the result to BAR.ISO. If fewer arguments than expected are given, ccd2iso will print its help message and quit. If more arguments than expected are given, ccd2iso will silently ignore them and use only the first two argu- ments. IMG files are raw-data copies of optical media, generated primarily by the Windows application CloneCD, and are primarily used to store CDs with odd properties, such as sectors which need to have read errors when read. Conversion to ISO format removes this information, as ISO format does not support this. IMG files almost always include a SUB file, which contains additional data for the disc format, and a CCD file, which is a plaintext con- figuration file describing the disc layout. ccd2iso does not make use of these files, but the applications which generate them expect them to have the same FOO prefix as the IMG file. LIMITATIONS
ccd2iso currently only copies the first session of multisession discs, as well as outputting a harmless warning of Unrecognized sector mode. ccd2iso utterly ignores the additional data in CCD or SUB files. SEE ALSO
