The script itself does nothing useful: it simply tells Kate Part to indent 
the current line like the previous.
It's meant to be a template instead of a useful script ;)

Example:
function indent(line, indentWidth, typedChar)
{
    if (typedChar == ':') {
        // check for 'case' string
        // if found, search upwards for a switch statement and get the
        // indentation depth of this line. call it n.
        // and now return n, that means Kate Part will align the
        // case statement with the same depth as switch...
        return n;
    }
    return -1;
}

Just a stupid example, and probably not how it should be implemented.
Maybe I should blog again to provide concrete examples :)
