You can try the dict4ini module written by me.

http://wiki.woodpecker.org.cn/moin/Dict4Ini

The dict can be saved as an Ini file, and can be read back from the
Ini file.Just like:

 >>> import dict4ini
 >>> x = {'.\\sync_pics.py': 1135900993, '.\\file_history.txt':
1135900994, '.\\New Text Document.txt': 1135900552}
 >>> d = dict4ini.DictIni(values=x)
 >>> d['.\sync_pics.py']
 1135900993
