   dbm family (dbm, gdbm, Berkeley DB) are exactly dictionaries; they just
store info in files. (The last one, BSDDB, is more advanced). There is also
Metakit - similar to dbm, but operates with tables.
   You can also use Gadfly - pure python SQL engine.

           Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
