Ian,

This is a useful hint, and I expect if you canvassed Xcode users you would discover that they all take note when the indentation level looks wrong and immediately search for the structure error that caused it.

There is a great way to find the structure errors as well. Double click on one of the bracketing characters in your code, {, }, [, ], (, or ) and the Xcode editor will select the text within the scope of the character, showing you exactly where it thinks the other end of the enclosed text is.

If you notice that the cursor jumps in more than you expect it to when you hit return, or when you type one of the other characters, the chances are that somewhere in the code above you have not properly closed braces or brackets.
