S-expression parser for Python
==============================
`sexpdata` is a simple S-expression parser/serializer. It has
simple `load` and `dump` functions like `pickle`, `json` or `PyYAML`
module.
>>> from sexpdata import loads, dumps
>>> loads('("a" "b")')
['a', 'b']
>>> print(dumps(['a', 'b']))
("a" "b")
You can install `sexpdata` from PyPI_::
pip install sexpdata
