I use autoindent in vim/gvim, but reckon I may need to up the tabs to 4
perhaps.  I've never got on with emacs, though - vi is God's own editor.

Just the sort of message I was hoping to hear!  I can't decide whether to
carry on trying to get this extract_fonttable_from_an_rtf script in Python,
Perl, or simply do it in 2 minutes in C or shell.  I really _want_ to get
on with Python, but I really need to get it working!
