Look at XML support in Python. It is pretty simple to use, almost effortless. So is, by the way ini file support. Chas. Chris Webb wrote:

An XML parser isn't any more difficult than writing any other one.
Really? I must be missing a trick here! In a number of places both inside our public cloud platform and in client code that interacts with it, I have the following parser code in bash for our simple KEY VALUE format:
local KEY VALUE while read KEY VALUE; do case "$KEY" in [dispatch table] esac done
I'm delighted to hear that I could just as easily and cheaply be using XML as my interchange format at this point, and given this, perhaps I should be doing so. Would you care to illustrate?
Cheers,
Chris.
