Subject: Re: indentation whitespace tabs -> spaces
In Python, indentation is syntactically significant (wow -- I sound
like a programmer when I use big words!). So tabs vs. spaces can mean
that Python code doesn't even parse. (sigh)

But here's a language, in which "any non whitespace characters are
ignored; only spaces, tabs and newlines are considered syntax." Did
you get that? *Only* whitespace is significant.

What a world. :-)
