Hi, Another suggestion (mostly for people used to tabs) might be: Level0: Write some code. Some condition/function: Level1: Do something. Level1End This is for presentational purposes in emails. In real code, don’t write levelN/levelNend though. I’ll address this again in our meeting today.

This may be controversial. Although four spaces is the most common indentation, I suggest two spaces per indentation level will work better especially for email. Two and four spaces are both common standards, but four spaces eats too much page territory. Richard
