pickle.dumps(mg)

'dict' object has no attribute 'readline'
dumps load(well i dont know but i get no complaint but running load
generates that error)
The 'loads' and 'dumps' methods use strings:
>>> import pickle
>>> d = {"this": 42, "that": 101, "other": 17}
>>> s = pickle.dumps(d)
>>> s
"(dp0\nS'this'\np1\nI42\nsS'other'\np2\nI17\nsS'that'\np3\nI101\ns."
>>> pickle.loads(s)
{'this': 42, 'other': 17, 'that': 101}
If you want to store to / restore from file, use 'dump' and 'load':
# write to file 'out'...
>>> f = open("out")
>>> f = open("out", "wb")
>>> pickle.dump(d, f)
>>> f.close()
# restore it later
>>> g = open("out", "rb")
>>> e = pickle.load(g)
>>> g.close()
>>> e
{'this': 42, 'other': 17, 'that': 101}
Also see http://docs.python.org/lib/pickle-example.html.
Hope this helps!
