Wednesday of Holy Week

So I love Smultron even more than I did before. I was trying to be a good little hacker and indent my python code with four spaces instead of tabs, but it was wearing me down. I thought, "Maybe I can still be lazy about this?" And sure enough, way back in the "Very Advanced" tab of the "Advanced" tab of the Preferences menu for Smultron is the option to use spaces instead of tabs for indentation. And do you know what this does? When I press tab, as I am oh so wont to do, I get, not just four spaces, but rather the exact number of spaces needed to take me to the next of the tab marks, which are four spaces apart.

So, once again, I'll be forcing my students to use Smultron instead of whatever else they might, at least for the first week and a half. Love it.
