As someone else mentioned, sounds like you have the auto-reindent option
on (it is off by default)

I don't know what else it could be.

Also answered elsewhere, -C command-line option.

Not as a preference, but you may edit the source directly,
e.g Views/SourceViews.py in the constructor for EditorStyledTextCtrl
you may add the following code

self.SetCaretWidth(20) # or however thick you want the caret
self.SetCaretPeriod(0) # If you want it to stop blinking
