<p>Edit after @JosephVanName' comment:
Conway's <em>Functional Analysis</em> has the result for completely regular spaces as Theorem 6.6 (page 140).</p>

For example, it is important what you mean by indicator function -- the standard definition I know is extended-real-valued, and hence has no derivative in the sense of classical analysis. There are other derivative concepts that are applicable here, but it would help to know the context of this question.http://mathoverflow.net/questions/118442/reference-for-x-compact-c-bx-separable-x-metric-space/118461#118461Comment by Christian ClasonChristian Clason2013-01-10T08:31:35Z2013-01-10T08:31:35ZWell, a proof should not only convince the reader that a statement is true, but also explain why it is true. For the former, an appeal to authority (like a reference to an exercise in D&S) is sufficient, but the latter requires pointing the reader to a full proof. That's why I did not think my first reply was a full answer. (Also, the references were suggested by others and I just checked them, so it seemed wrong to harvest the rep for them.)
