Brett Cannon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: OK, now I see why it is called 'dumb'; the thing literally just dumps out the repr of two strings on each line for key/value pairs. To read it just evals each line in the string. And whichdb detects this format by looking for ' or " as the first character since that is what the repr for str is. And that is why the Latin-1 decoding was used; it has the proper repr for write-out.
