Presumbly because it wants to create a function, which can later be
called. Since python is sensetive to whitespace it has to indent the
code to make it work.

There was an example on the web somewhere (the link has been posted to
this list) of a peice of python which you can load into the interpreter
which will allow it to accept \r\n terminated lines. I don't recall if
anyone actually tried it out or not...

Won't fix the indenting problem though...
