- "Serpent provides ast.literal_eval() compatible object tree
-serialization. It serializes an object tree into bytes (utf-8 encoded string)
-that can be decoded and then passed as-is to ast.literal_eval() to rebuild it
-as the original object tree. As such it is safe to send serpent data to other
-machines over the network for instance (because only safe literals are
-encoded).")
