This is library loads lines of text in a simple attr=value format into arbitrary Go data structures, and encodes Go data structures into lines of text in the same format. The format is inspired by the Plan 9 network database format, seen here: http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/6/ndb The format is the same, except that values may be quoted with single quotes to contain white space. The package can be installed with `go get aqwari.net/exp/ndb` Once installed, documentation can be viewed with the godoc tool.
