I don't think the article is right that "it's silly to have some expression/statement groupings indentation based and some grouped by enclosing tokens" -- provided it's done right. The OCAML-based language F# accepts OCAML enclosing tokens, but if you mark the groups with indentation they're not necessary (but still legal). That seems to me to work pretty cleanly. -- Tim Rowe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
