This is largely a question of personal taste.

Hello Everyone,
Thanks for all your comments.
I have two Freedom Scientific displays. The Pac Mate display has a tactille
mark at every fifth cell. The Focus 40 display does not.
I have been looking at the Orca code. Indentation levels are usually 4 spaces.
There would be a problem, or better
I use bratty all the time for programming. However python standard says to use
spaces not tabs and in fact most programming standards I use require spaces
because tabs cause issues for visual as well as blind people. I use a 40 cell
display and never use speech for coding.

Do you have examples of displays featuring

Of course they can, but there's a reason why such a feature is more commonly
available for speech, i.e. leading whitespace is both silent and uncountable.
In braille,

I worked as a programmer for ages and I never ever used brltty for this
sort of things.

Hello,
Thanks for yolur suport. However, the tab replacements would be easier to read
and even count if they were not blinking and not full cells.

Ok. Dear kind and deeply experienced Mr Mielke. Yours C programming language
experience are very deep. I believe, that if you would have some time, that
you could try to implement TAB indentation feature plea from MR Boyer this
excellent man could make many useful Python apps and scripts not only
Counting spaces is time-consuming and error-prone. I would rather spend the
time coding. Again speech screenreaders can indicate indentation.
Braille screenreaders should also.

My display is 40 cells. Five tabs of eight spaces will make it blank.
Speech screenreaders indicate indentation. Why not Braille?

Consider the following deeply indented Python statement.
wordType = adverb
There are five tabs. I would like BRLTTY to replace them with simicolons
;wordType = adverb
This feature would have to be optional and easy to
You just have to count the spaces.

Can you give an example of what you mean?

Hello,
I am considering trying to help with the development of Orca. However, I need a
way to indicate indentation in Python.
I thought of trying to get emacs to do this, but it is really the business of
the screenreader. So I am wondering if BRLTY has a way of indicating
indentation.
