No idea. Quite odd. > 2) We get <tab> for block indentation instead of the spaces I prefer. That's odd, I get four spaces unless I'm editing an existing file that already uses some other convention, in which case python-mode is usuall smart enough to figure that out. I don't use wordstar-mode. > Is there a better python-mode script I should be using other than the > default that came with emacs? I assume you're using X/Emacs, then, rather than GNU Emacs? IIRC, there's a separate sourceforge project for python-mode now, so you could give that version a try. John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
