Learned about toml the other day, looks like it could be useful for packaging. It is an .ini-style language that maps unambiguously to a dict, supports comments, and is used by rust's packaging system "cargo". https://github.com/toml-lang/toml
Unfortunately at least 3 of the Python implementations don't seem to be up to date with the current version of the spec specifically regarding triple-""" strings. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
Ugh, I hate TOML. I’m -1 on any of the standards using it, but I also think the standards should be around data exchange and should just use JSON and leave front end stuff like that up to the implementations. --- Donald Stufft PGP: 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA
