That took a while to find. I hate it when that happens! Do you use emacs? If not, emacs has a mode that will line up your indents when you press tab on a line. When you miss a } you will notice the indentation is wrong. But emacs isn't perfect either... Haven't heard of a lint for bash though. Tried google?
