Do you want your files transferred (a) so that they look like native
text files on the
ctionary, and it isn't sql. The use you have in mind is a
bit more complicated than the simple create-me-a-dictionary-in-a-file,

See Pep 315, which is still open, and targeted at 2.5.
It survived the recent spate of PEP closings and rejections.

Don't use print, write directly to sys.stdout.
Print is not intended for precise output formatting;
it's intended for quick outputs that are useable
most of the time.

torch the bad guys, you don't have to write "a
little cleanup method".
To leave a tombstone for the bad guys:
>>> u'abc\u0160def'.encode('macroman', 'replace')
'abc?def'
>>>
To leave no memorial, only a cognitive gap:
>>> u'The Good Soldier \u0160vejk'.encode('macroman', 'ignore')
'The Good Soldier vejk'
Do you *really* need to encode it as MacRoman? Can't the Mac app
understand utf8?
You mentioned cp850 in an earlier post. What would you be feeding
cp850-encoded data that doesn't understand cp1252, and isn't in a museum?
Cheers,
John
