[Alex Afanasyev]

Hi Amin,

Python scripts (wscript) are very sensitive to indentation. You should correct the things you have typed to match indentation of the existing code.

I'm not quite confident how to do it with scratch/ folder, but if you have created a separate scenario repository or configured your scenario in src/ndnSIM/examples/wscript (and put it under src/ndnSIM/examples), then you may do the following:
