Not C, but C++ (but there are also C implementations): YAML, see: http://code.google.com/p/yaml-cpp/wiki/HowToParseADocument I use YAML now and then with Perl for both reading/writing data and for debugging purposes (YAML is quite human readable, for programmers at least) Of course there is also YAML support for Python: http://pyyaml.org/. -- John Bokma j3b Hacking & Hiking in Mexico - http://johnbokma.com/ http://castleamber.com/ - Perl & Python Development -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
