'''A remote dictionary server

    RDict is a typed, hierarchical, persistent dictionary intended to manage
    all arguments or options for a program. The interface remains exactly the
    same as dict, but the storage is more complicated.

    Argument typing is handled by wrapping all values stored in the dictionary
    with nargs.Arg or a subclass. A user can call setType() to set the type of
    an argument without any value being present. Whenever __getitem__() or
    __setitem__() is called, values are extracted or replaced in the wrapper.
    These wrappers can be accessed directly using getType(), setType(), and
    types().

    Hierarchy is allowed using a single "parent" dictionary. All operations
    cascade to the parent. For instance, the length of the dictionary is the
    number of local keys plus the number of keys in the parent, and its
    parent, etc. Also, a dictionary need not have a parent. If a key does not
    appear in the local dicitonary, the call if passed to the parent. However,
    in this case we see that local keys can shadow those in a parent.
    Communication with the parent is handled using sockets, with the parent
    being a server and the interactive dictionary a client.

    The default persistence mechanism is a pickle file, RDict.db, written
    whenever an argument is changed locally. A timer thread is created after
    an initial change, so that many rapid changes do not cause many writes.
    Each dictionary only saves its local entries, so all parents also
    separately save data in different RDict.db files. Each time a dictionary
    is created, the current directory is searched for an RDict.db file, and
    if found the contents are loaded into the dictionary.

    This script also provides some default actions:

      - server [parent]
        Starts a server in the current directory with an optional parent. This
        server will accept socket connections from other dictionaries and act
        as a parent.

      - client [parent]
        Creates a dictionary in the current directory with an optional parent
        and lists the contents. Notice that the contents may come from either
        an RDict.db file in the current directory, or from the parent.

      - clear [parent]
        Creates a dictionary in the current directory with an optional parent
        and clears the contents. Notice that this will also clear the parent.

      - insert <parent> <key> <value>
        Creates a dictionary in the current directory with a parent, and inserts
        the key-value pair. If "parent" is "None", no parent is assigned.

      - remove <parent> <key>
        Creates a dictionary in the current directory with a parent, and removes
        the given key. If "parent" is "None", no parent is assigned.
