Finding .ini configuration files too limiting, JSON and XML to hard to
manually edit
[snip]
I call the new format RSON (for Readable Serial Object Notation),
and it is designed to be a superset of JSON.
Quick question: if JSON is too hard to manually edit, how can RSON be
any easier when it

Well, Python is essentially a superset of JSON, with string escape handling
being ever so
