I think you are mistaking me for someone else. I have been using python since before 2000. I went from not liking the forced indentation to not being bothered with it to not liking it again. I also think that one doesn't need to discard a language just because one doesn't like this particular feature. One can think the other characteristics of the language are positive enough one can live with this small annoyance. -- Antoon Pardon. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
