"""S-expression-based persistence of python objects.

Stability: semi-stable

Future Plans: Optimization.  Lots of optimization.  No semantic breakages
should be necessary, but if small tweaks are required to gain acceptable
large-scale performance then they will be made.  Although Glyph is the
maintainer, Bruce Mitchener will be supervising most of the optimization work
here.

I do something very much like L{Pickle<pickle>}; however, pickle's main goal
seems to be efficiency (both in space and time); jelly's main goals are
security, human readability, and portability to other environments.


This is how Jelly converts various objects to s-expressions:

Boolean: True --> ['boolean', 'true']

Integer: 1 --> 1

List: [1, 2] --> ['list', 1, 2]

String: \"hello\" --> \"hello\"

Float: 2.3 --> 2.3

Dictionary: {'a' : 1, 'b' : 'c'} --> ['dictionary', ['b', 'c'], ['a', 1]]

Module: UserString --> ['module', 'UserString']

Class: UserString.UserString --> ['class', ['module', 'UserString'], 'UserString']

Function: string.join --> ['function', 'join', ['module', 'string']]

Instance: s is an instance of UserString.UserString, with a __dict__ {'data': 'hello'}:
[\"UserString.UserString\", ['dictionary', ['data', 'hello']]]

# ['instance', ['class', ['module', 'UserString'], 'UserString'], ['dictionary', ['data', 'hello']]]

Class Method: UserString.UserString.center:
['method', 'center', ['None'], ['class', ['module', 'UserString'], 'UserString']]

Instance Method: s.center, where s is an instance of UserString.UserString:
['method', 'center', ['instance', ['reference', 1, ['class', ['module', 'UserString'], 'UserString']], ['dictionary', ['data', 'd']]], ['dereference', 1]]

        gone through the prepare/preserve cycle on the specified object (it is
        being referenced after the serializer is \"done with\" it, e.g. this
        reference is NOT circular), the copy-in-place of aList is relevant,
        since the list being modified is the actual, pre-existing jelly

        superfluous, since the value in self.preserved didn't need to be set,
        but the invariant that self.preserved[id(object)] is a list is
        convenient because that means we don't have to test and create it or
        not create it here, creating fewer code-paths.  that's why
        self.preserved is always set to a list.
