There is code in src/engine to convert a kvp-frame to scheme, though. Are you trying to let the user edit kvp-frames directly using the option framework, or do you just want to store options in the book kvp data? If the latter, you can just use the options code to serialize the option-db to a string and store that in kvp. dave
