"unsigned int" sounds like the right type to me, since
"indent" never goes negative. And using the unsigned type
seems to be in line with policy in HACKING:
If a variable is counting something, be sure to declare it with an
unsigned type.
Of course, avoiding casts is good, too, but IMHO, not if
it makes us obfuscate (even ever so slightly) the types we use.
