(I also posted this to wxusers because it's sort of cross-platform -- sorry if you're seeing it again.)

With an earlier app I wanted an external data file and everybody told me to make it internal to the program (the app's Resources, I guess) instead. I couldn't, then. Now with a new app I want to do just that, but I'm not sure *how* to do it!

It's a file of data -- a Python dictionary object, after it's loaded into memory -- which will grow and change as the app is used; when the app terminates the data ought to be saved with it for next time. In this case I don't want users fiddling with it apart from the app.

What is the right way to do this? (What's the easy way?) Is there a simple method that will work for both Mac and Windows (and Linux)?
