Gregor,
You want to use eval():
Python 2.3.4 (#53, May 25 2004, 21:17:02) [MSC v.1200 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> eval('[3,54,5]')
[3, 54, 5]
>>>
Cheers,
J.F.

Hi,
given the dynamic nature of python I assume that there is an elegant
solution for my problem, but I did not manage to find it.
I have a file that contains for example on line:
['147', '148', '146']
when I read the file
f = file("I050901.ids").readlines()
I have a string
f[0] == "['147
