There has been recently a thread about the use of a preprocessor for blind Python programmers, you may want to have a look: http://groups.google.fr/group/comp.lang.python/browse_thread/thread/80654a87bfa89e3b/de268f888d9cdf0e (snip) >>More seriously, the added issue is that SPE uses spaces, not a single >>tab to indent the lines, Most code editor let you configure this. wrt/ Python, just make sure you do not, never, mix tabs and spaces.
