If you simply copy-paste into the sage commandline, you will get that error since after the `return(1)` line, indention goes back one level, like so:
sage: def ff(n): ....: if n == 0: ....: return(1) ....: else: --------------------------------------- [Errors] Since sage.el interfaces with the sage commandline, I will have to assume the same thing happened. It's a problem with IPython, so I don't think there's much to be done about it. Last time I tried `sage.el`, there was a command to send input directly to the comandline buffer, something like send/evaluate region. Perhaps you can try that?
