in reply to Creating data tree from input without eval

merlyn's suggestion of YAML is good. I like JSON because it's eval'able into a JS data structure and is a nice proper subset of YAML.

But, eval's overhead doesn't mean anything in a run-once config load. You're worrying about the stupid stuff. Don't.


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?
