yeah, that can be a killer if you don't use a fixed width font.

i found the only way to avoid that was to write python code with a dos
or some console  editor (like the console version of vim, boxer, etc).

if i had any complaint about ruby it would be  begin/end blocks. i
thought we ( as programmers) were done with that when pascal fell by
the wayside. i much prefer {curly brackets} to designate blocks of
code...
