Regarding pickling to XML, lxml.objectify can do that: http://codespeak.net/lxml/objectify.html however: > It does something else: plus functions do not export their code, > either in interpreter instructions, or source, or anything else; and > classes do not export their dictionaries, just their names.

I'm having a hard time to understand what you are trying to achieve. Could you state that in a few words? That's usually better than asking for a way to do X with Y. Y (i.e. pickling in this case) might not be the right solution for you. Stefan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
