问题
Recently, I use Eclipse to edit my python code. But lacking indentation guides, I feel not very well. So how to add the auto indentation guides for Eclipse? Is there certain plugin? What's more, I have tried the EditBox. But, you know, that is not very natural under some themes...............

I use EditBox too and with the right options it is really usefull and doesn't change the look of the editor too much.
If you only want the vertical grey lines that show the indentation/block like this
These are the options:
or if you want to just import the options, paste this in a text file and import it. (You might have the add the file extension .eb for it to work)

There is a plugin that does the job nicely called Indent Guide
The update site is http://sschaef.github.io/IndentGuide/

Here are two tutorials for using Eclipse and Python:

As far as indentation, you should be able to simply change the "Editor" preferences.
The key is to make sure the "Pydev, editor" settings do what you want, and any other, Eclipse "Editor" settings don't get in the way :) The second link discusses this in more detail.
'Hope that helps!
PS:
You can also do "brace matching" in Eclipse with Ctrl+Shift+P.

As for me, all I do with Eclipse for working with Python:
- Install pydev
- Set tabs to be replaced by spaces
Set tab length to 4
- you can make tabs and spaces visual by displaying non-printable symbols. Hopefully, this is what you meant.

This is available out of the box for PyDev in the latest version (you can enable it at PyDev > Editor > Vertical Indent Guide).
If you use LiClipse (http://www.liclipse.com -- which is Eclipse+PyDev and some other goodies), it also provides indent guides for other editors (it's the commercial counterpart which enables PyDev to keep on being developed).
