Scripting help please beginner

I've been going through a beginners book on maya. It calls out this string for mel. However, when i put it in

lookThroughModelPanel camera fullbody_camera0 modelPanel 4;

I get this error:

Error: Line 1.59: Wrong number of arguments on call to lookThroughModelPanel

help please. I typed it just as it said to.

Seems like that lookThroughModelPanel command is looking for two arguments and you gave it four.


A working syntax would be:

Code:
lookThroughModelPanel nameOfCamera nameOfPanel;
I think the space between 'modelPanel' and '4' is unintended since there is indeed a panel named modelPanel4, which is what I think the book is referring to.
