Two things are driving me mad about Python...

Repeatedly getting "TabError: inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation" which may have something to do with my editor...
Consistently having issues installing modules. It seems to fail most of the time. I don't know if it's a homebrew thing or something else stupid I am doing.

@atzanteol @rasterweb Indents as syntax does mean you’ll have trouble hacking at a Python script in a random text editor but it also means I have never have to worry about where I put closing brackets to try to make things look pretty.

@jim @atzanteol I come from the land of Perl! I seem to have more issues with white space, tabs,and spaces than I do with brackets and semicolons.

Yeah - braces and semicolons are simply not an issue.
