What I find is useful in situations like this is to just let emacs 
auto-indent the code.  When it starts indenting (or coloring) 
differently than I would have expected, that's a clue that I've messed 
up some punctuation somewhere.

This doesn't only work in emacs.  Vim, eclipse, etc, all have similar 
syntax-coloring and auto-indenting features.  The same idea works with 
any of them.
