I generally don't mind this aspect of Python, but I've recently found that
it can cause problems when transmitting code. For example, I saw some
code that I wanted to copy in DejaNews c.l.py archives, but the lines
wrap in narrow columns in DejaNews. I had to reindent the code. Grrr.
I have also had problems when e-mailing code when I e-mail the code as
text in the message instead of attaching a document.
Is there a better way to transmit code so that possible indentation
munging won't force the reader to reindent?
