The indents were dis-arrayed e-mail, due to a long REM;
in the script the indents are as you suggest.

        Blanks = '_' * len(SecretWord)

        for i in range(len(SecretWord)):
            # 116 Replace Blanks with correctly guessed letters.
            if SecrettWord[i] in CorrectLetters:
                Blanks = Blanks[:i] + SecretWord[i] + Blanks[i+1:]
               
    for Letters in Blanks:
        print Letter,
    print
