Datafiles could be implemented with SQL. Consider SQL: SELECT * FROM process_dict where id = 1 . SELECT * FROM process_dict where id = 1 Obviously, this is all a supposition, I'm not claiming the code is perfect (or am I ?). If datafiles could be implemented with SQL and storing text requires datafiles, then I can store text with datafiles (haha !). Would you consider doing this ? One could even store python decorated serialized code using SQL [supposition]. But would it be useful [haha !] ? I don't know. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
