I come from {} too, but found moving to indentation really
a no problem except that one of the python editors I tried
messed up my code badly, probably because it was written
with a two space indent instead of the common 4.

I abandoned tabs long ago: when it was standard (8) there
could be some use for the tab char, now it's just another
way to add *completely pointless* confusion.

Anyway I forced myself to change to 4 space indent (even
if indeed seems to me a bit too much), and I abandoned
fancy editors so I'm back to the trustable VIM :-) ... it
may go eventually wrong when guessing the indent for next
line; but it will never ever dare to mess up my code.

Actually my problem is that now I sometimes forget ";"
when working in C++ :-)
