Hey Mats!

When I first learned Python, the "whitespace is significant" thing made a lot of sense. After that my shell, Perl, and Ruby code looked a lot like my Python.  :)  I've been on a Go phase for a bit, and those are Go settings, to match "go fmt". I'd agree though, for Python I prefer two spaces as indent, and no tabs in code at all.
