I've never run into that problem, but it shold be simple enough to do that in an automated way as well. Don't reindent and pindent work as advertised? >> In a brace delimited language it's not possible to write a program to >> correctly place braces in an "incorrectly braced" program. > But with braces it?s easy enough to reconcile different indentation > conventions without introducing logic errors into the code. Reconciling indention in an indention-delimited language doesn't correspond to reconciling indentation in a brace-delimited language, so comparing them doesn't really make sense. -- Grant -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
