I understand the cPickle module was written in C, but looking at it seems daunting to create sample code from it. I found a post on this list here: http://mail.python.org/pipermail//tutor/2011-September/085414.html that shows an example of pickling data to disk. I'm wondering if that's pickle or cPickle (protocol version?) ?? What i'm trying to do is write a client in C that will send pickled data to a server written in python for unpicking over TCP. I'm still learning this stuff (pickle/serialization) as i go (i have zero knowledge of python), so apologies if i'm not making any sense as i've had trouble finding help on other

You're probably better off asking on comp.lang.python but the advice 
will almost certainly be don't do it see e.g.
