Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The # characters are used to allow Emperor programs to be parsed in a context-free way, specifically to end code-blocks such as while and for.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nicer if Emperor were a white-space language. In this scheme, a dedent would serve the same purpose as a # in its current purpose.

Describe alternatives you've considered

It would also be possible to use { and } to delimit blocks, however these could lead to a verbose or inconsistent syntax.
