[Tutor] output of dictionaries

[Tom Cloyd]

I'm creating a small database using a dictionary of dictionaries, and I  
want to output it to a file. It seems that only strings can be output to  
files, and I cannot quite figure out how to quickly and simply convert my  
dictionary to a list of strings or whatever. Or maybe I'm going about this  
all wrong.

So, the most general form of my question: how can I store a dictionary  
containing some data records stored as dictionaries - a dictionary of  
dictionaries - in a file, so I can read it back in later and process its  
contents?

Thank you very much for your generosity in giving some of your time to  
this service. I'm very grateful.
