 Not all Python object types are supported; in general, only objects whose value
 is independent from a particular invocation of Python can be written and read by
-this module.  The following types are supported: ``None``, integers, long
-integers, floating point numbers, strings, Unicode objects, tuples, lists, sets,
-dictionaries, and code objects, where it should be understood that tuples, lists
-and dictionaries are only supported as long as the values contained therein are
