Thanks for the reply.
Hmm, what do you mean? I was under the impression that that's how Python encloses different statements. That's what I meant by "whitespace parsing" where the whitespace/indentation actually matters.
I've heard of Ruby on Rails, I was interested in it until I read this article and its comments: 456bereastreet.com/…
But yeah, right now I'm more interested in Python than RoR.
