in reply to Storing state of execution

I've used Storable with great success. Another method I've taken to lately is using JSON, which stores in plain text, but is cross-language (I can write in Perl/Python/insert-language-here, then open it back up with any other one). You could also use Data::Dumper to store and retrieve state (Perl only).
