Escher.py - Key/value db with its data

For the old people, before we had MySQL, this is how we used to have "guest book" on websites. With auto-updating Perl CGI scripts.

Even as a toy, that's hideous Python code.

Cool. Might be useful for configuration files. It can be executed so it's possible to make it able to list all parameters, descriptions, default values, etc. Since it's valid python, it can be read by a python script. People can also open the file and modify the configuration themselves.

<p><pre><code> "data = " + str(data), </code></pre> should probably be<p><pre><code> "data = " + repr(data),</code></pre>

Cute.
