[wellylug] Non-standard languages on Linux

[Pete Black]

Because with properly formatted/indented code, the symbols are 
completely redundant.

And the python designers decided to enforce proper formatting/indenting 
rather than making it 'optional'.

Personally, I dont like python, much preferring perl but I can see why 
many people do like it a lot.
