as i said, i am not a dev so i never learned "convention"....

AHK let me scrap whatever script from internet or i could come up, throw them in notepad and it would work.... now, python makes you "properly indent" which coming from AHK makes my head explode

this is a good example. AHK would read this normally but no, python sees whitespace and wants to "use that"....

this would never happen on AHK so it makes me mad.

part of the reason why i have never gotten hold of python while i can whip up an AHK script in my mind

Fair enough, I can see that this is something which can easily throw you off if it isn't part of your normal workflow.
