Sounds like you want a key-value store. If it's a lot of data, you may
still want a "database", I think it's just relational databases that
you're trying to avoid?

That question isn't inherent to databasiness; it might not even be
network-shared at all - in fact, most database-driven web sites have a

They're quite different. "if spam" will check the truthiness of spam -
it's equivalent to "if bool(spam) is True"; "

The problem is that the logMode1 reference is _only_ bound to the name
logMode1. Assigning it to "variable" in the Checkbutton instance (logCheck1)
does not actually generate a reference to that variable inside logCheck1.
Therefore, once the initialize method terminates, all references to logM

In which cases should we use the is() function ? The is() function
