how to fix this error?
bios:367: [string "display"]:52: "end" expected (to close "while" at line 10)

Split into new topic.

Without seeing your code, the best we can do is point you to the list of common errors.

That means you forgot to close a while loop in your program.

I recommend to shift every structure that has to be ended with an "end" forward with a tabulator like this:

while true do
  ev, p1, p2 = os.pullEvent()
  if ev == "key" then
    print("You pressed a key")
  elseif ev == "char" then
    print("You pressed a key")
    print("With char event")
  else
    print("You fired another event.")
  end
end

But, as Lyqyd said, you can be helped best when you post the program.

Actually, it means you forgot to close anything requiring an end, ei for, if, function, etc.
