BDB4, but consider using sqlite - it's really simple, holds all data in a single file and it's more supported (in the sense: there are bindings for sqlite for almost any language/environment out there, and the file format is stable). It's also very fast and you can later add more information you want to store (by adding more fields to table). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
