[issue37061] The strangest glitch I have ever seen - incorrect indenterror, even on commented out code.

[Bob Vegene]

New submission from Bob Vegene :

So, I'm making a simple program that will allow me to quickly copy programs to 
System32 for use on the command line. When I tried testing this in a file 
called test.py in the same directory as sys32move.py, I got a very strange 
error. IndentError. I am very experienced with python and I know how to fix 
this and why it is caused. I fixed what I thought I could, but the I realized 
something was off. 

I commented out everything in sys32move.py and it still outputs this error.

Now, commenting this out is unnecessary, as this is a false error anyway.


This is test.py:
try:
import sys32pack
install_folder(testfolder)
except Exception as e:
print(e)
input()

(you get same behavior without the catching of the error.)


SYS32PACK.py:

No, I removed that before. I actually did have one, but I removed that and it 
still shows.

The error it gives is 

unexpected indent (sys32pack.py, line 41)

(im also using IDLE)

FYI.

I decided to check the file in notepad++ and I saw that there actually is an 
indentationerror... However, the save button wasn't working I guess. I can't 
tell you how many times i hit ctrl+s and clicked save. Wow, so it still is a 
bug.
