You just need to use an editor that inserts tab characters when the tab key is pressed, just like you use an editor that inserts s characters when the s key is pressed. If people didn't insist on using spaces where tabs are called for, there would be no problem, and you wouldn't need a specialized editor to prevent screwing up space-indented code. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
