You write curly braces in Python like this: #{ and #}.
Just indent normally and you shouldn't notice any difference.
If you don't indent, or if your indentation is idiosyncratic, then
Python probably won't suit you.

Ya, for me it is not about having to indent my code correctly as I do
that anyway.
It more the language designers choice of applying syntactic significance
to whitespace.
I believe python has this polarizing effect amongst many.
See for instance a recent conversation in ACM Queue with Steve Bourne,
Eric Allman, and Bryan Cantrill:
