Here's the real code fragment:

line3="${begchars} ${line3}"
echo "before if, endchars = "${endchars}"."
Beware: word splitting will be done here when expanding ${endchars}
because the " before it closes the first "
You should quote the inner ":
echo "before if, endchars = \"${endchars}\"."
It doesn't look like there are supposed to be any quotes. It should be
simply:
echo "before if, endchars = ${endchars}."
But it appears to be just a debugging statement anyway.
