in reply to What is the best way to dump data structures to logfiles?

One option here is DBM::Deep. It's not human-readable, but it's quite useful for transparent instantiation of Perl datastructures to disk.

My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?
