Yes, I agree, but as most of the customer base I target uses the O/S that
cannot be named ;-) , file names could become a problem just as 'ln -s' is
out of the question.
Yet, this might be the best trade-off.

I've really only used Rational Rose,
I am really surprised that someone hasn't mentioned Gadfly yet. It is a

Be careful, though - make sure you can absolutely trust your source of
data before calling eval on it.
If an unauthorised person could forseeably modify your file, then they
could insert a string containing arbitrary Python code into it in place
of your list, and then running your program would ca

If you decide to steer clear of eval, the following comes close to what
you want, and is somewhat Pythonic (I feel):
def back_to_list(str):
return str.strip("[]").split(", ")
>>> s = "[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]"
>>> back_to_list(s)
['1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6']

Hello All,
Is this a bug? Why is this tuple getting unpacked by raise? Am I missing some
subtle logic? Why does print not work the same way as raise? Both are
statements. Why does raise need to be so special?

As an OO exercise I have a factory pattern that returns class objects that
