Two things:
If your function is more than a page long, odds are you need to break
it up into multiple functions. Python is a highly expressive
language; use that to encapsulate and combine smaller functionality
into larger structures. In the long run, you'll be thankful.
Using a wider default indentation per level can help make things more
visually apparent as to indentation. 2 charas is easy to miss, but
its harder to miss being off by 4 or 8 chara.
