I don't know much python yet but have used python-mode to code in python2. When I write something for python a.k.a. python3 though the indents are each 2 spaces. A tab character doesn't work by itself. For that reason python-mode may need reconfiguration to tell it each indent is two spaces. I don't know that using the tab key with python-mode can be caused to produce two spaced indents but if so that should solve your problem.

Subject: pYthon indentation

I have discovered an issue with python-mode in emacs. I generally c++
develop and seldom do python (I have to say that I am not much of a fan, but
our testing framework uses it).

I have recently discovered this issue:

I emacs ?Q

I open a python file
It contains:

Import re as myre

Var = [
%

The % represents the cursor location. Then, at that location I try to tab
and get this error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil)
 python-indent-context()
 python-indent--calculate-indentation()
 python-indent-calculate-indentation(nil)
 python-indent-line(nil)
 python-indent-line-function()
 indent-for-tab-command(nil)
 call-interactively(indent-for-tab-command nil nil)
 command-execute(indent-for-tab-command)


I have not developed in python for a month or so but I cannot remember this
being an issue.
I am using emacs 24.5.1 windows 7 64 (unfortunately) and ? of course - -Q so
no configuration.

Now, I try to apply python-mode 6.2.1 by running this

Emacs ?Q
In *scratch*
(setq load-path (append load-path (list "~/.emacs.d/python-mode.el-6.2.1")))
(require 'python-mode)

I open up a python file (the same as above) then I CAN indent. This is all
well and good, so if I load python-mode 6.2.1 el file in my NORMAL
configuration this solve the issue, BUT now with the new 6.2.1 I do not get
the same theme coloring as before, which-function-mode seems to be broke
(again) and developing in python is sluggish.

For me, unfortunately, 6.2.1 solves one issue but creates others.

If, instead, I can just have the patch that solves the indentation issue,
that would be great.

Thank you.
