Did you mean in Python3? I would agree that using it is better than
importing the semi-hidden _pickle module.
That said, I'll echo the questions about testing. Pickle works in
Python3, but it is fraught with all kinds of bytes/str and encoding
issues; I've found it sufficiently fragile in practice that I really just
try to avoid it. How have you verified that this script works under both
versions of Python?
Thanks,
jon
