Obviously. As you know, in Python, indentation is signifiant. > why doesn't spe automatically put the else at the level of the if > statement ? I don't know.

You probably want the SPE mailing-list (if it exists), or whatever the project page offers as a mean of sending feedback to the author. Python-related questions, even elementary ones (provided you at least took time to read the official tutorial), are of course welcome !-) HTH -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
