The '~italic~' and '*bold*' things at the end of the line are obviously 
remarks and not intended to be interpreted as PHP, but they don't have 
the form of a remark, so PHP tries to make sense of them (and fails). 
Either remove them, giving you

   Markup("'~", "inline", "/'~(.*?)~'/", "<i>$1</i>");
   Markup("'*", "inline", "/'\\*(.*?)\\*'/", "<b>$1</b>");

or turn them into proper remark form ("comments") so that PHP will 
ignore them:

   Markup("'~", "inline", "/'~(.*?)~'/", "<i>$1</i>");     # ~italic~
   Markup("'*", "inline", "/'\\*(.*?)\\*'/", "<b>$1</b>"); # *bold*

(The latter could also have been

   Markup("'~", "inline", "/'~(.*?)~'/", "<i>$1</i>");     # '~italic~'
   Markup("'*", "inline", "/'\\*(.*?)\\*'/", "<b>$1</b>"); # '*bold*'

but I think the unquoted form is more appropriate.)

Regards,
Jo
