In Emacs, visit a C file and type:

C-c . python RET

'python' is a standard c-mode indentation style, however it's set up to use
tabs.  It should be updated, maybe to a 'python3' style?  Here's a quick and
dirty hack:

(c-add-style "python3" '("python"
                         (indent-tabs-mode . nil)
                         (c-basic-offset . 4)
                         ))
